下面是3款都好评如潮的第一人称解谜类游戏环绕走廊、传送门2和塔罗斯法则的对比（有疑问望能指出，谢谢）

总的来说，三款游戏各有各的特点，并不能说因为难而不好玩，也不能说因为简单就没意思，个人觉得三款游戏的难度都挺好，在这个基础上太难或者太容易都会失衡，不管怎样，热爱解谜类游戏的人在通过每一关的时候得到的那种成就感都是非常之大，其中所蕴含的不仅仅是剧情，还包括不少受益终身的人生哲理。
喜欢传送门系列的希望不要错过塔罗斯法则这款游戏，虽然相对于传送门和环绕走廊，没有那种空间变化的眩晕感（后来在百度贴吧中得知不少人都晕这游戏，个人建议不要跑太快，镜头切换也不要太急促，也可以毫无保留地喜欢这游戏去解决，我可能是太喜欢这游戏，所以一点也不晕吧），但是个人觉得这款也是一款非常有意思的第一人称解迷类游戏，基本无操作难度，只要你思路正确， 就能很快解开谜团。游戏特点挺多，二维码的扫描是一个很不错的亮点，手机也能拿来扫描，在与主机聊天的过程，身为机器人的自己不停地追问着真理和理性，感受着上帝非凡的力量（我在胡说八道什么……），俄罗斯方块拼接方面也挺好，就是我自己有点笨总是拼好久。（在繁体中文语言里）
在追寻人性的特点和意识的根本意义这一方面，塔罗斯法则是表现得非常出色，一段又一段录音讲诉人对世界的真相的苦苦追寻，一次又一次面对”上帝“给你带来不死的诱惑，一遍又一遍机器人对意识的质问，着实让我感到自己存在的不可思议。解谜过程你可以随心所欲，但你必须记住：每次选择带来的后果，因为人在做天在看。
个人给分9.5/10
+++极具创意的关卡和道具设计
++令人深思的剧情
++场景画面不错
++非常带感的背景音乐
+有国语和粤语配音
+国区特价（而且居然可以全球礼物）
--有一定眩晕感
--机翻内容

提示各位一下，简体中文完全是机翻，如果要看准确翻译可以把语言设置成繁中，繁中翻译质量很高，能完全对的上普通话字幕，但是这样语音会变成粤语，这点只要在语音里面切换回来就行了

我想提醒你们，以后别和那个中文翻译合作了，他用机翻（Google Translate）糊弄你们。虽然很多翻译都会用机翻偷懒，但是一般都是机器翻译完了后，再人工修改调整。他可倒好，一点没校对，没修正，我甚至怀疑他英语八级过了没。跑一遍机器，就完成翻译了，这钱赚得可太轻松了，从头到尾付出的劳动只有复制粘贴吧？真想知道你们从哪找的翻译，赶紧把他拉入商业黑名单吧！

In today’s world of microtransactions, games releasing before they’re finished, glitch-ridden open world engines, and games that overall fail to live up to their artistic vision, sometimes there will come a game that’s so perfect that it’s hard to believe it even got made.

The Talos Principle is a single-player puzzle game made with full triple-A production values, arguably leaving Portal 2 in the dust at what it does. I liken it to Dear Esther, but twenty times longer and filled with actual gameplay, while keeping the beauty of the world and the philosophical overtones intact.

The game consists of walking through majestic-looking outdoor areas to find closed-off puzzle areas, then solving puzzles using only a small handful of simple and easy-to-understand machines. The puzzles themselves are eloquent and very well-tested. There are over a hundred of them in all, but each puzzle introduces a new idea or uses old ideas in new ways, so they never feel repetitive or stale. The game’s environments are simply breathtaking with their huge draw distances and ridiculous detail, while the puzzle areas feel aptly like claustrophobic rat mazes while never losing the area’s sense of atmosphere. The puzzles get very challenging near the end, but expert level design makes them all very rewarding to solve. And if you’re particularly clever, the game’s third ending requires you to figure out how to break the level design and take items out of their designated areas to find secrets hidden in closed-away or out-of-bounds places. It’s rather mind-blowing and something that I’ve never seen incorporated into a game intentionally before.

The icing on the cake is the storytelling. The story is that you’re a robot who wakes up in a garden and follows the commands of a god-like figure constantly talking in your head. It quickly becomes apparent that the whole world may or may not be a virtual reality simulation, which may or may not have been programmed by humans for a specific yet unknown purpose, and you are given the choice of blindly following the god’s orders or trying to unravel the mystery of who exactly you are and what lies outside of the simulation. The game has three different endings, and you will find whatever answer you seek if you search hard enough.

The game poses a few difficult philosophical questions and studies them from countless different angles. I know that some people will find the philosophy pretentious and trite, and I know it’s completely up to personal preference, but for me it really, really worked. I was hooked on the story the whole way. I think that even if some of the game’s lines fail to impress you, there’s enough material here that you’ll find at least something that will strike a chord and challenge the way you think. Besides, if you don’t like the story, it’s easy enough to skip everything by ignoring the computers, but you might miss out on the brilliance of some of the game’s endings.

I give The Talos Principle a perfect score. It’s got sublime puzzle design, mind-blowing secret collectables, gorgeous environments that put Dear Esther to shame, above-average voice acting, a professionally-written and well-presented story, nearly zero glitches, and depths and depths of content. It’s truly one of the best games I’ve ever played. Go play it if you haven't already; you might come out feeling like a different person.

If Animus would have ever spent a night of passion with GlaDOS, then this would be their child :) Influenced by Portal series and early Assassin's Creed games, among others, this game is a mind-blowing combination of puzzle-solving tasks with a story which builds a philosophical bridge between religion and science in a way that can only be called a stroke of genius.

I can't say that Talos Principle is better than Portal. It's beyond Portal.

It takes Portal's approach to first person environmental puzzle solving and, standing on its shoulders, reaches higher, offering you much more sophisticated puzzles of various kinds that sometimes have several layers and sometimes even inter-operate. The reality you are operating in is filled with messages and secrets, not unlike the world of Animus from Assassin's Creed, telling you a story and fuelling your brain. And just like in AC, you get some secondary things to do when you get tired of the "main" puzzles.

The graphics are fantastic. Landscapes are gorgeous. Controls are perfect. Music is superb. Voice acting is impeccable. Length is ideal. Puzzles are mind-bending. Progression is non-linear. This game might be officially "indie", but its quality is triple A. Or quad A. To call it non-trivial is like to say that a rocket is non-slow. And what's most valuable, is that you don't feel that profits were the top priority for the makers. The game was.

The things I love about it the most:
• Assisted jumping. Just brilliant. If only Quantum Conundrum had it.
• No fake puzzles based on arcade elements.
• Weather effects.
• I can get as close as I can to a wall and still see no blurred textures.
• Wherever I go, I never get stuck in terrain.
• Skippable intro movie and sensible menus.
• Runs on my Macbook Pro.
• Has a free demo.
• It's so clever, it feels alive.

The things I dislike:
• Loud "Death" sequence can give one a pretty good scare when comes unexpected.
• It ends.

If you like puzzles - buy it. If you like first person games - buy it. If you like philosophy - buy it. If you like lasers - buy it. If you like finding secrets - buy it. If you like clever writing - buy it. If you like computer games - buy it! And if you don't like computer games... You just never played this one :)

Philosophy, A.I and the downfall of the human race. Would totally question my existence, the nature of reality and my place in the universe again. 10/10.

It's a puzzle game a bit like Portal, you use lasers and angles to power up doors and shutdown force fields to gather tetris like puzzle pieces while a over inflated ego (voice in the sky) thing talks to you like you're a child. It feels a bit like a university students project got out of control, sometimes it looks like it was rushed together and levels feel like development just stopped, but it didn't, it is all intentional.

Existem games ruins, medianos, bons, os ótimos, e existem aqueles que são antológicos. E por antológicos quero dizer aqueles que você pode listar com os dedos das mãos. E mesmo não sendo uma super produção de um grande estúdio, sinto-me confortável pra dizer que The Talos Principle entra nessa minha lista de jogos antológicos. É um game absolutamente magnífico, muito bem escrito, bem polido, com ótimo level design, boa jogabilidade, bons visuais e - característica essa que admiro bastante - te põe pra pensar, seja com a complexidade dos puzzles, seja com sua história.

The Talos Principle lembra bastante Portal. Um game de puzzles em primeira pessoa, mas não pense que é uma mera cópia. São similares, sim, mas não idênticos. Mas chamá-lo de "estilo Portal" não chega a ser injusto ou demérito (até porque Portal 2 é um desses jogos que eu considero como antológicos também). Enquanto Portal abusa do humor, The Talos Principle abusa de conceitos científicos e filosóficos que eu particularmente considero interessantíssimos.

Recomendo com força esse aqui.

HIGHEST RECOMMENDATION!

"The Talos Principle" is one of the most enjoyable and rewarding gaming experiences I've EVER had and I've been playing video games since the Atari 2600 days. There is a reason why "The Talos Principle" is a hit among critics and the player reviews are "Overwhelmingly Positve." For me this is a new classic. A game that catches lightning in a bottle. One of those games that scratches an itch I didn't even know I had.

NOTE: If you think you might get this game, I'd recommend against watching video and looking at player screenshots. They are both highly likely to contain spoilers and inadvertent puzzle hints, both minor and major. I only played the demo going into the full game and I feel the experience was better for it.

This is a first person, sci-fi themed puzzler in which the player, an artificial intelligence, is left to complete puzzles by using a series of tools that are introduced throughout the game. The first tool is the Jammer, a tool that jams electronic devices and force fields. Another tool connects to and aims laser beams. You'll also learn that tools can be used in combination, keeping the progression interesting. Solving a puzzle rewards the player with a sigil (tetromino) which are then used as puzzle pieces to unlock new areas when arranged correctly in puzzle mini-games.

The only conversational contact the player has is with another AI program that often presents itself at computer terminals as the game progresses. The player is also, through communicating at the terminals and reading information displayed on them, left to ponder the role of the disembodied voice known as "Elohim", as well as the meaning of life, consciousness, being human, being alive, free will, and the afterlife.

The game itself is solid. Easy and tight controls. Very nice music, sound effects, and voicework. Clean, often beautiful graphics. Intelligent writing. No profanity or violence. Menus with many options like FOV, character speeds, FPS display, time display (something I never used as I chose to take my time), etc. This is a quality "product" every way I see it and a fantastic game from a company that respects it's PC customers.

Many have compared this to the Portal games, which is high praise. While both offer clever puzzles and a high quality experience, "The Talos Principle" only rarely depends on any sort of physical dexterity or reflexes. With those few puzzles that do require quickly timed movement, even the most casual of players shouldn't have any issues whatsoever.

While the presentation and story are high quality, it's really about the puzzles. What makes them so satisfying? First, puzzles do not need to be finished in an exact order. Leave one alone for a while that you are having trouble with and try again later. I found it interesting how I'd find myself struggling with a puzzle but after a day or two, the solution would become clear. It was almost "scary" when realizing how hard at work my subconscious was. I would also think about certain puzzles when not playing and come up with new things to try out. I found myself overthinking many times when the solution was much simpler. Also, just when I thought I had a handle on a "recipe" that certain types of puzzles used, the game would throw me a curveball, forcing me to deviate from previous "patterns".

Some puzzles, even of the harder variety, can be figured out quickly depending on the player's frame of mind, while "easier" puzzles (those without numerous elements) can be trickier. You know the puzzles are good when you find yourself wanting to do "just one more" before ending a session. And puzzles can often be completed in more than one way. I found out later that some solutions I used were much much more complicated than they needed to be. This dynamic of overthinking vs. underthinking is what helped make my time with "The Talos Principle" so interesting, as well as thinking out a solution before acting vs. using a lot of trial and error at other times.

This game also encourages and rewards exploration. There are stars to collect, which unlock additional content in the form of more puzzles and ultimately an additional ending choice (there's a main ending and two possible side endings). These stars are often "puzzles within puzzles" and gathering them is rewarding and can be quite challenging. It's not just a matter of "hide and seek". For example, a star may be within a puzzle and behind a door (force field). It is up to the player to figure out how to reconfigure his/her solution so that an additional door can be opened. There is also an ample amount of "Easter eggs" to find, many of which are interactive and well worth seeking out. Many are references to other games, like Portal 2 or Papers Please. Pink Floyd is honored with one as well.

Keep your eyes wide as you traverse the puzzles and worlds. Even just finding ways to exploit the simulation is fun, for example, finding a way to climb over the outer walls of a puzzle and into "out of bounds" areas (where there are some Easter eggs to find). Or "breaking" a puzzle by finding an "unintended route" to the finish by climbing over a wall, or walking above one. (This accounts for a lot of my game time).

"The Talos Principle" should appeal to a wide variety of players. I spent about 80 hours on my first playthrough and a less thorough playthrough will of course take less time. I then replaid for 100% achievements (which I usually don't do). I suspect that many of the people finishing Talos in "20 hours" are not doing everything (reading files, getting all stars/doing the puzzles they unlock, looking for easter eggs) and likely to be using a walkthrough here and there. You can play this game as you want. Complete the puzzles in order or don't. Do them fast or slow. Solve star puzzles or don't. Don't read every piece of information at the terminals if the story side of the game doesn't interest you. Look closely for Easter eggs or don't worry about them at all. Try out the side endings or don't.

The support is very good with developers active on the Steam forums should anyone have issues and updates have been released to fix and add things (like an added special settings menu for "motion sickness", a speed time function, additional language support, etc.). This company, Croteam, does it right. You should give them your money just "based on principle."

NOTE: The demo is also good, yet only a taste of the full game. It ofters a solid introduction to gameplay and some clever puzzles. There is even another free game called the "Sigils of Elohim" that is made of tetromino puzzles. Solving them will reward you with codes that are then entered into the menu of "The Talos Principle" for bonuses. These do not change the core game at all but, for instance, you can get stars with these codes.

All the regular stars will still be in the game to find. If you get the codes for bonus stars (three in total), you will start with three stars in the full game. So, you'll be free to leave three stars unfound if you wish and still receive the bonus content for finding all of them. In other words, if you start with the bonus stars and then go on to find every star in the game, you will finish with an extra three stars.

PS: If you get and finish the game, check out my screenshots if you want (NOT before you play). Some hint at additional "challenges". Like getting a picture of the blue man visiting the greedy man and living to tell about it.

A first/third-person puzzle game with beautifully themed environments and captivating original soundtrack.

You solve world puzzles to collect Sigils (Tetris pieces, essentially), and you use those collected Sigils in Sigil puzzle locks (which unlock doors or new puzzle mechanics.) To solve a lock you must arrange the Sigils in a preset rectangular pattern. Along with Sigils there are collectable stars which are used to unlock more difficult content. The stars themselves are often fairly difficult to collect, but are very satisfying.

The game plays at your own pace, as puzzles are solved with theory and execution as opposed to timing and platforming. Due to the design of puzzles being self-contained experiences, you can play casually, only completing a few puzzles during a session without worrying about losing progress and having to redo a bunch of them. You can't manually save in the middle of a puzzle, but progress is saved as events get triggered, and your last puzzle/world location is kept track of, so it's easy to continue where you left off.

The game does not hold your hand as you play... you aren't told how to use puzzle mechanics, but rather you learn how to use them through natural play and experimentation. The learning curve is very gradual but you will find yourself dealing with fairly complex puzzles later on in the game as you become accustomed to the mechanics. The game isn't a linear progression of puzzles so if you get stuck on a puzzle you can skip it and come back to it later (and often solving it after having an epiphany.) The only barriers are Sigil Locks, which do require you to collect at least certain "easy" Sigils before advancing too far.

The story of the game is conveyed through various means... through ELOHIM (the voice in the sky), audiologs (from a female scientist), journal entries (archived data in computer terminals), and messages written on the walls (by various characters.) A big, unique part of the story is done through interactive events in the terminals, where you will interact with an AI character through dialogue trees. The AI will make you think, articulate your thoughts, and ultimately question yourself. If you wish to partake in the story and get the most of it, you'll find yourself having a lot to read, but it's all completely optional and can be skipped if you really just want to solve puzzles. The writing and voice acting are all super high-quality with perfect execution.

The level design is based on real-life environments and themes primarily from Roman, Egyptian, and Medieval architectures, with a few "fantasy" environments thrown in. Weather and time of day add a lot of variety to the worlds and keep them fresh and feeling unique from one another. Environmental textures and models are very detailed and are made from real life photographs and 3D scans, as I understand it. Puzzle mechanics clearly stand out from the detailed environments by being pristine and more technologically advanced in nature, as to not get in the way of solving the actual puzzles. Puzzle areas are designed to feel open and allow you to see to other areas so you get a good sense of what all you have to work with and the area you have to utilize. Areas such as walls, fences and stairs feel natural while still retaining very distinct purposes, often aiding you in coming up with the solution without you necessarily realizing it.

There's a ton more I could say about this game, but all in all you're looking at around 20 hours or more of content spanning around 120 puzzles (not including Sigil lock puzzles or additional secrets.) A second play-through is likely if you're wanting to explore alternative dialogue trees, get all the achievements, find all the secrets/messages, or attempt speed-running. There is also a level editor included as well as Steam Workshop support for user-generated content. The PC version of this game has more settings than you have ever seen before, so it can run smoothly on rather low-end hardware, and you can adjust to your liking.

Full disclosure: I was a volunteer beta-tester for this game for ~3 months prior to release, and I have ~180 hours of play in ~4 playthroughs. I highly recommend this game and supporting the developer, Croteam!

Glorious 9/10, A MUST BUY!
Potentially long review ahead:

When it comes to FPS puzzle games, people usually point Portal as the definitive game of the genre. With all respect, I can conclude that The Talos Principle walks one step higher and I dare to say: completely blows out Valve's game out of the water. You probably never heard of this game, and to my original surpise, it is made by Croteam, famous for their legendary Serious Sam franchise. Who knew they also created one of the best puzzle games ever? Before starting, let me tell you the only thing I knew about this game was that it was a 'philosophical FPS puzzle' and such works usually come out too pretentious, corny and as people jokingly love to say: "2deep4me". What I immediately spotted was something that has the potential to leave a deep mark in anyone for years ahead. Underrated, but carefully touched piece of perfection.

What people seek in puzzle games is, after all, the puzzles themselves. Various player skill demands various challenges, and puzzle games often lose the balance trying to catter to different minds, and usually hopelessly fall down into either "too easy" or "crushingly hard" while also dealing with the problems with keeping enough variety to not feel like a deja-vu slog.. However, mechanics here are simple and straightforward. Although not many in number, here they are perfectly used for building a large variety of challenges. Levels have clear objectives, they are clean, and various little clues are scattered all around them. What I saw here made me awe, as The Talos Principle shows a massive competence in level design, something that I truly admire in such type of games. Also, who wouldn't like playing co-op with himself by recording his moves beforehand? :) No, wait, don't be scared! All puzzles are completely solvable and if they seem to easy for you, there are always other additional hidden challenges for hardcore hunters. What I really liked and completely left me in ecstasy was looking at a level and telling myself "WOW WTF THIS IS IMPOSSIBLE", only to come back 1-2 days later and facapalm while laughing like a lunatic at how genius the solution was and how I managed to magically solve it. I find it funny how some levels are designed in such ways that 'normal' tries will lead into just a tiny little detail or centimeter of a distance that will make your plan fail into mild rage. You will really need to think outside of the box for some levels, but at the end YOU WILL SOLVE IT and all will be worth it, trust me the feeling is great and great games should really reward their players with such joys! It's interesting to note that some levels have multiple ways in which they can be solved. But never worry, there's always another choice that players are given, wandering around the "gardens"; you aren't strictly locked into a single level and when times go hard, you can always try something else. You also have the ability to acquire up to 3 'jokers' if you really want to go down there. There's enough variety to keep you entertained in the world, both mechanically and thematically as 3 very distinct 'world zones' exist. The whole platforming mechanic is mastered in a clear way that makes you relieve having to count pixels to make the 'perfect' jump or else fail miserably into level restart frenzy.. Here you just press JUMP and the game guides you into the perfect landing spot.. Adding the underlying themes, the whole experience becomes truly unforgettable.

What The Talos Principle shines in is the masterfully crafted lore and worldbuilding, dealing with themes of existentialism, artificial intelligence and ... getting verbally rekt in an argument with the computer. x) A very peculliar and engaging, the game never tries to force ideas on you, and nothing really feels contriving. You can read text, listen to time capsule messages; what Talos does is to make you feel! And it does it perfectly in a natural way!! Even if you aren't a fan of such mind-boggling adventures, you might still like the ideas present as the game never goes overboard into mumbo-jumbo complexities that might as well not mean anything at all to 'ordinary plebs'. It's a fascinating work that pushes you to explore, and the whole ideas of being trapped in a virtual world with no direction but random scibbles left behind from pissibly eons ago makes you really dive into the solitude atmosphere; Who is that voice from the skies? Is he an ally? Why is nobody else here? What happened, why are you collecting sigyls to unlock doors? What is at the end? Should you trust the 'serpent' from the screen? HEY WHAT IS ON THE TOP OF THE TOWER??? ... Your choice affects what happens next in this world, and there are 3 different endings in total. Although some poeple might find the 3rd one kinda harder to obtain for it's supposed importance.. but guides always exist. ;)

Talking about atmosphere, I can't really miss the soundtrack. One of the best OST I've ever heard; with numerous memorable songs, encompassing different genres and moods. You can't really deny what music does for games, but here you will notice a whole another added dimension that keeps you focused, relaxed and hungry for more adventures. Everything just fits and the various melodic loops will never bore you trying to solve that ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ hard puzzle!!
The environment is trully spectacular (DAMN THOUGH, THAT TOWER!!!!) and at times you just find yourself stopping there to relax and sniff the air while looking at the backgrounds. Worlds are indeed beautifully designed, and receiving a new response on the terminal makes you relieve some stress by attempting to argue about abstract hypotetical thoughts with AI that acts surprisingly convincing. You aren't all that alone after all.. :))

But of course, every precious egg has it's bad side. I can't say there's a critical problem with the game, and while I think some things could have been done better, they don't really strike as something ruining the overall experience. The main gripe I have is with the ending, it's crafted nice and offers an interesting conclusion to the story, but at the same time it feels a bit disconnected gameplay-wise, with rather lackluster execution. What you've seen so far in puzzles kinda loses its focus and appears as a different game that punishes you by time limit... where the lack of proper save checkpoint system can get kinda enraging trying to retry the same chain of events again and again. This is probably the thing that hurt my interest in the last parts of the game and made me remember it as something just not so so masterpiece-tier.

Whatever I felt at that time, I can't really deny now that this is one of the best games I've ever played. Combining the serene atmosphere, beautiful soundtrack, exceptional narrative with mind-bending themes and references to real mythological and literal texts, The Talos Principle is an ever shining gem that will definitely satisfy your gaming needs and will keep you waiting for more. The DLC is worth it if you want even bigger challenges, and a second game is confirmed to be in the works.

Do not miss this game! I guarantee you will enjoy it troughoutly.
You probably got massively bored reading this needlesly long pile of words, but if you somehow managed to do it, congratulations dudeee!!!!!
Enjoy a great game, you awesome piece of thinking blood-driven flesh-machinery. ;)
/the cat is (not) a lie/

谜题还不错
但是没有传送门那种引导人玩下去的剧情
虽然对剧情很好奇 对那些稍微意识流的东西也感兴趣
但这和剧情吸引人玩下去是两回事
而且没有猫!

I just solved a single puzzle that took me 1.5 hours without looking it up on the internet.
I'm proud of myself.
10/10

MARAVILLOSO a demasiados niveles. Cómpralo.

La jugabilidad se asemeja al Portal, en cuanto a que es un juego de puzles en primera persona en la que utilizamos cacharros para pasar fases aisladas. No hay pistola de portales, los elementos básicos son otros, pero funcionan muy bien. Poco a poco se van añadiendo más elementos que aumentan la complejidad.

El juego no requiere mucha habilidad. Por ejemplo, te ayuda ♥♥♥ los pocos saltos que hay que hacer (te marca en el suelo dónde aterrizas y aunque no estés mirando, ya sabe dónde quieres aterrizar). En ese sentido es más sencillo que Portal o Portal 2.

La dificultad de los puzles es bastante alta, pero no es injusta. Los puzles no son cada vez más grandes y largos, ni requieren más habilidad. Por lo menos como norma general. Simplemente son más difíciles. Y esto tiene mucho mérito.

La narrativa es bastante particular. Si quieres enterarte de todo tendrás que leer textos y escuchar grabaciones, pero nadie te obliga a hacerlo y está justificado en la propia historia del juego. Quiero decir, no es como en el BioShock que te encuentras grabaciones porque sí tiradas por ahí sin ningún sentido. Puede que al principio no te interesen los textos, pero seguramente acaben haciéndolo a medida que juegues. No importa, no hay que leer hasta la última página tampoco.

La atención a los detalles es asombrosa. Pasmosa. A nivel gráfico, efectos de sonido, música, voces. La forma en que recompensa al jugador. Y todos los secretos que esconde. El juego es BONITO y EXTENSO.

En el momento de terminarlo en Steam pone que jugué 18 horas. Vaya, no está nada mal. Y es rejugable, porque tiene contenido opcional, integrado también dentro del propio juego.

Cómpralo, copón.

- Pero Jorge, ¡cuesta 20 eurazos y yo por un indie no pago más de 10!
- Que lo compres.
- Pe--
- QUE LO COMPRES HE DICHO.

这样是不是吸引你继续看这篇评测了呢？快点个赞继续看吧。


编辑评价：传统解密游戏爱好者不容错过的杰作。


+ 关卡设计看似单调但非常出色
+ 令人深思的游戏剧本
+ 优秀的演出设计
+ 契合度很高的音乐
+ 游戏性高
- 完全机翻的简体中文，但这样都比3DM翻译的质量高
- 手柄体验不佳
- 防眩晕机制差
- 通向结局的道路过于漫长，中间没有给玩家打鸡血的兴奋点

一个优秀的3D动作解谜游戏，很多人（包括我）会不自觉的将其与传送门系列相比，本作没有传送门系列那种令（部分）人晕3D的高频度空间变化，对于厌烦和抵触光圈科技产品（我身边的确有这种非常讨厌传送枪模式的游戏）的玩家，你们虽然错过了Valve历史上构思最宏伟最脑洞最创新的作品，不过玩玩这个也可以算是补足。

本作是我喜欢的那种“上来就把玩家丢进剧本核心，但全程不会直接展开剧情，甚至直到很接近结局之前都不会直接告诉你剧情”的超大量留白的演出设计，上个看到这类设计的大型游戏是传送门，不过小型游戏有很多，FEZ和Braid都是同类。喜欢这种游戏演出设计（注意是演出设计！游戏性完全不同）的玩家一定也会喜欢本作的演出。

一共三个结局，普通结局和真结局都不需要搜集隐藏要素，并且真结局是这个游戏的核心。对于一般玩家（比如我），建议打完真结局就可以了。隐藏结局需要全搜集，并且没有真结局那么有张力。

===

少量剧透警告

游戏一开始，玩家就会有“我到底扮演个啥？”感觉，切第三人称知道自己扮演机器人之后又不知道这是在干啥。在一个颇有希腊风格的半残破花园里面搜集各种方块，解锁开门。大概会认为是个普通的解密游戏。

然后搜集到一些稀奇古怪的片段文本，还是不懂剧情是啥，索性只玩游戏性不管剧情。

接着开了进中继点的传送门，进去声音一变，卧槽，这tm是什么地方，大教堂？还有7个门？

于是玩家知道了这大概是一个有7关的的解密游戏，然后大概打了3个门，解锁了电梯，从-1楼来到地面，本来以为电梯上去是另一层之类的，结果上去之后是个工厂！tmd教堂上面是工厂？

然后全游戏的核心震撼点出现了……对19世纪科幻和蒸汽朋克有兴趣的人这个时候一定会给这个游戏打至少7/10的分，完全戳中痛点。

大量剧透警告，NO反白，看到这里你已经来不及了哈哈哈哈

游戏剧情：

公元20xx年，南极冰冻地区释放了一种只感染灵长类的远古病毒，人类并无免疫力，因此全部受感染，死亡率100%。用尽全部办法之后所有国家都决定放弃努力坐等灭绝，以游戏真女主（哈哈我没标题党）亚历山德拉为首，带领了一个顶尖的科学家团队聚集在一个神秘地方，为了延续人类文明而做出最后努力。

但由于人类迟早全灭绝，因此这群人脑洞的最后结果，就是就是“将人类的文明数据存入一台超级电脑，然后做出一个可以自我改善的AI，让AI学习数据库里面的知识，当AI产生自我意识并认为‘我就是人’的时候，这个AI就等同于人类了。”

某种意义上就是人类文明在AI上继承了。

于是他们又造出一个AI管理员，由它不停在计算机内存中生成AI，然后让这些AI去活动，直到确认了可以称为人类的AI，将其下载到现实世界中的机器人身体上，就确认计划完成了。

玩家的游戏过程就是扮演其中一个AI，而之所以你一开始完全不知道游戏是在玩什么，也不知道剧情是什么，恰好就是“角色扮演”部分——因为你扮演的AI的确真的不知道这个世界到底是什么，连这是个虚拟世界都不知道。而AI的解密中接触到的数据库资料就是AI学习的过程。而决定真结局的抉择则是AI考验的最后一步。

真结局就是这个计划完成的时候，计算机认为玩家扮演的AI已经属于人类了，整个游戏的情感都在真结局最后释放。之后你会觉得“这·游·戏·真·他·妈·屌·啊”

===剧透结束===

很多人会把本作和传送门对比，评论区的高票回答里面，大多说这作比传送门好。实际上本作也有几处致敬半条命和传送门系列的彩蛋。但从演出设计来说，本作是不如传送门的。

传送门1中玩家一开始也是莫名其妙被绑到一个房间里面，然后莫名其妙的画外音指引玩家开始挨着关卡解密，这里和本作完全一样。但传送门有个优点就是一直用不同的方式提醒玩家“画面之外的东西”，比如经常会走到关卡房间外，发现一个人都没，充满高科技的关卡外面都是锈迹斑斑的工厂之类的，这样就可以在解密之余给玩家一点“张弛有度”的感觉，也能继续给玩家不停的打兴奋剂，要打穿所有的关卡想看结局。

2代就很明显了，9个章节的配合都是属于那种一段解密，一段探索，还伴有各种小高潮（第一次看glados与被打入旧光圈这一段的演出真是棒），明显是电影设计手法。

本作就缺乏这种手法，20小时的游戏时间除了最开始的惊艳，惊讶，惊喜和“卧槽这游戏好他妈屌”之外。后面就是重复的演出设计，开门解关卡开门解关卡。考虑到本作是个小品试水作，没有传送门2那种大气倒也可以理解，但演出的乏味能让许多“不知道这游戏最后很屌”的人觉得“这游戏好他妈傻逼”然后弃坑。

另外有几个致命问题，其一是翻译，其二是防眩晕机制，高票回答已经说过了，就不再多说。

顺便，游戏真女主亚历山德拉的简体中文配音非常强，完全看不出来是外包作品，中文CV的演出吊打80%以上的国产动画，国内CV们建议一定要学习一下。简中的配音甚至某种意义上来说比英文原版都要好。

总之，如果你喜欢传送门系列，也喜欢近未来科幻作品，请务必不要错过此作。

猫呢？？？！！！！！！！

Это просто божественно!
Именно то, чего я ждал годами после выхода Portal 2. Гловоломки (думать, кстати, придется не только над ними), голос за кадром и куб-компаньон <3. Плюс качественная локализация (все полностью на русском языке) и дикая продолжительность. От этой игры невозможно оторваться! Да и трудно писать рецензию не заспойлерив.
Лучшее приобретение в моей библиотеке за этот год.

10 Талосов из 10.

Cut From a Different Cloth

Due to the fact that The Talos Principle is a science fiction based first person puzzler, it’s hard not to make comparisons to Portal. However, while Portal is a more lighthearted game, the Talos Principle is more somber and thought-provoking. Drawing inspiration from writers like Isaac Asimov, Philip K. D*i*c*k (Apparently Steam doesn't like his last name), and John Milton, as well as a number of philosophers, it takes a much different approach to the puzzle genre.

Deeper Thinking

With heavy philosophical undertones, you will find yourself thinking beyond the puzzles as the very world around you is questioned. This, in combination with a visually stunning environment, creates one of the most wonderful and unique experiences that I've had in a game.

Gameplay

Playing as an android, you must solve puzzles while at the same time being posed a series of increasingly introspective questions about your existence. I am going to refrain from saying anything more about the story so as not to spoil anything. This is a highlight of this game and is best experienced by going in to it knowing as little as you possibly can.

The puzzles are very unique, with various elements being added throughout to provide for an experience that never once felt repetitive to me. In these puzzles you will collect sigils using boxes, jammers, crystal prisms to connect lights, avoid mines, and float high up in to the air with fans. The most notable tool at your disposal is undoubtedly the ability to record yourself, allowing you to create what is basically a clone of yourself, which will act out your previous actions while you work with it in real time to solve the puzzle at hand.

The puzzles are very scattered in difficulty. Most were able to be solved in very little time, with a select few that I found myself having to really think about. If you want some more difficult puzzles, or you’re like me and want to squeeze every second out of this game that you possibly can, then I highly recommend doing the extra puzzles which are marked by the stars. These are not required to finish the game, but I found them to be some of the most enjoyable ones to complete as they can be more challenging and mind-bending, forcing you to really think outside of the box (or designated puzzle areas).

A Beautiful World

The world is huge, often times even a bit overwhelming. There are quite a few secrets hidden around, so you will be rewarded for exploring. There are also messages and words scattered throughout which provide backstory as well as give you insight to other characters. These can be found on computer terminals, audio logs, and QR code graffiti, and really do add something special to the story. I really enjoyed finding these, and felt that it added a nice touch.

Not only are the graphics superb but the music is lovely and perfectly suited for the various environments as well as puzzle solving.

There is also a huge amount of customization available in the options menu, which is always to be appreciated. This allows you to change the size of the game hub (or remove it entirely), remove cross-hairs, change from first-person view to third-person, etc.

My Verdict

This is a lengthy game, and at my time of completion of the storyline I have clocked about 37 hours of playtime. For this length and the high quality of this game, I feel that the current asking price is more than fair. This is hands down one of the best games I have ever played, and I can't recommend it enough.

10/10 would erase from my memory and play again.

tl;dr => BEST. GAME. EVER. À acquérir d'urgence, sauf si vous n'aimez pas les puzzle games (c'est votre droit).

----

Incroyable. Fantastique. Exceptionnel. Merveilleux. Magnifique. Profond. Et je pourrais continuer longtemps. Mais pourtant, je manque de mots pour exprimer à quel point ce jeu est excellent, à quel point il m'a plu.
Oui, ce jeu est incontestablement un pur chef-d'oeuvre, le meilleur jeu de 2014, et sans doute l'un des meilleurs jeux des dix dernières années. Je l'ai précommandé pour soutenir CroTeam et voir ce que pourrait valoir ce jeu très prometteur... Jeu qui s'inscrit, sans aucune contestation, dans la liste des dix meilleurs jeux auxquels j'ai joués.

Reprenons depuis le début. Vous vous réveillez dans un monde ressemblant à des ruines greco-romaines et alors qu'une imposante voix venue des limbes, celle d'Elohim, vous explique votre but dans ce monde, vous constatez assez vite que vous êtes manifestement un robot.
La première chose que l'on constate en se mouvant dans les décors créés par Elohim, c'est qu'ils sont réellement somptueux. Autant de zones ouvertes irréprochables dans chaque Hub (il y en a trois, chacun correspondant à une zone différente, le premier étant les ruines greco-romaines). Aucun défaut visuel constaté en vingt cinq heures de jeu. Des skybox à tomber par terre. Aniamtions irréprochables. Et un level design impressionnant, à un point qu'on tombe sans cesse sur un panorama que l'on prend le temps d'admirer.
Certains se poseront la quesiton, l'air inquiet : "C'est bien joli tout ça, mais comment ça tourne ?"
Eh bien, il n'a rien à dire, le jeu a vraiment bien été optimisé. Vous pourrez voir sur les détails du jeu que la configuration minimale requise est plus qu'abortable, et le Serious Engine 4 est là pour assurer que vous puissez profiter de chacun de ces décors avec un framerate optimal.
A noter que The Talos Principle est le premier jeu que je vois sortir sans aucun bug, réellement aucun. Pas de patch nécessaire à la sortie : le jeu a réellement était bien fini.

Concernant le gameplay, c'est comme tout puzzle game : simple sur le principe, plus complexe dans les faits.
Bien entendu, le jeu commence doucement. Mais très vite, vous allez constater que le jeu grimpe en complexité au fur et à mesure que vous déverouillez de nouveaux items à utiliser et avancez dans le jeu.
Parmi ces items, on retrouvera le classique cube, un brouilleur permettant de désactiver barrières, mines, tourelles et autres soucis, et bien plus encore ; dont quelques concepts réellement sympathiques que je ne vous spoilerai pas.
Vous devez récupérer, au sein de trois hubs, tous les Sigils dispersés par Elohim : des verts, des jaunes, et des rouges. Chaque couleur correspond à une difficulté et une fonction différentes. Mais vous pouvez aussi, récupérer des étoiles (attention, ce sera hardu !). Etoiles qui vous permettront, en nombre suffisant, d'accéder à d'autres zones contenant des puzzles... Différents.
Et à propos de puzzle, on arrive à l'une des grandes bonnes idées du jeu (il y en a beaucoup) : la structure même du jeu, qui est construit en monde ouvert. Ce qui veut dire que vous pouvez dire adieu à la frustration de rester bloqué dix ans sur une énigme : vous n'y arrivez pas ? Pas grave ! Allez en faire une autre, et revenez faire celle-ci un peu plus tard !

Une autre des grandes idées de ce jeu : vous serez constamment, au cours du jeu, invités à penser en dehors de la simple boîte contenant le puzzle si vous voulez récupérer des étoiles. Car non seulement la structure en monde ouvert du jeu vous permet de laisser tomber une énigme qui vous parait trop ardue pour la reprendre plus tard, mais elle vous autorise aussi à sortir certains objets des puzzles, si vous êtes assez malins pour voir les failles. Il y a même souvent des puzzles en dehors des puzzles, ou dans les puzzles, qui ne peuvent pas être résolus comme les autres ! À vous de chercher et de faire preuve d'imagination. Mais soyez sûr d'une chose : le jeu ne manque pas de difficulté, et vous retiendra longtemps.

Niveau son, ambiance et musique, c'est tout simplement irréprochable. L'une des meilleures BO que j'ai jamais entendues. Concernant la VO, les doublages sont aussi excellents.

Un petit bonus concernant l'ambiance (et autre bonne idée du jeu) : au fur et à mesure de votre progression, vous tomberez assez vite sur des QR Codes que vous déchiffrerez automatiquement la plupart du temps : ce sont des messages laissés par d'autres robots comme vous... Qui ont été soumis aux mêmes épreuves... Mais ne partagent pas tous le même point de vue sur Elohim, sur la Grande Tour que vous ne devez pas approcher selon lui, et sur l'intérêt de ce monde. Mieux encore, certains des messages sont laissés par... Vos amis Steam qui ont joué au jeu ! Car vous pouvez effectivement ramasser des pots de peinture et peindre un QR Code en choisissant le texte, dans chaque zone a priori. De même, si vous trouvez les demeures des Messagers d'Elohim, qui pourront vous aider sur un puzzle trop difficile, vous aurez peut-être une surprise en regardant les épitaphes...

Et enfin, concernant le scénario... Eh bien, le moins qu'on puisse dire, c'est que le contenu est là. Profond. Intéressant. Très intéressant. Et surtout, extrêmement bien écrit.
Très vite, vous serez amenés à vous poser des questions : Que suis-je ? Pourquoi suis-je ici ? Quel est mon but dans ce monde ? Et autres questions plus centrées sur l'univers du jeu lui même...
Autant vous dire que ces réponses ne viendront pas en claquant des doigts. Ce sera à vous de rassembler les pièces du puzzle (encore !) en cherchant des enregistrements audio et documents laissés sous forme de capsules temporelles et autres terminaux partout dans le jeu. Plus vous en récupèrerez, et plus vous en apprendrez sur l'univers du jeu. L'aspect philosophique du jeu, déjà fort des le début, se trouve plus important alors que vous récupérez de plus en plus d'informations, et d'autres questions s'ajouteront aux trois premières au cours des discussions avec... Vous verrez bien.

Une dernière petite note sur ce jeu : outre le fait qu'il soit beau, amusant, bien écrit, et extrêmement bien fichu... Il y a aussi des Easter Eggs à la pelle. Certains vous rappeleront de bons souvenirs. D'autres vous feront simplement hurler de rire. Mais autant vous prévenir : cherchez bien, parce qu'ils sont loin de tous sauter aux yeux.

The Talos Principle est une réussite sur tous les points : irréprochable graphiquement, excellente bande son, scénario profond et intéressant, vraiment très bien écrit, un gameplay entraînant, des mécaniques de gameplay réellement excellentes, et tout un tas de bonnes idées. Alors, a t-il des défauts ?
Ce jeu est à mes yeux parfait. Mais je dois reconnaître qu'il ne s'adresse pas à tous les publics. Et je suis au regret de dire à tous ceux qui n'aiment pas les puzzle-games (c'est votre droit), à tous les kikoo-COD qui vont ragequit au troisième puzzle en disant "c'est nul c'est trop dur" et à tous ceux qui n'aiment pas réfléchir profondément dans un jeu que vous feriez mieux de passer votre chemin.

Mais si vous aimez un tant soit-peu l'idée du puzzle game, alors achetez ce jeu, et faites le. Parce qu'il est réellement exceptionnel. La vérité, c'est que Portal 2 a trouvé son successeur : ce jeu n'est, à mon sens, ni moins bon, ni meilleur, que Portal 2 : il est au même niveau, pour des tas de raisons différentes.

CroTeam, les développeurs de Serious Sam, ont réussi, en se penchant sur un genre de jeux qu'ils n'avaient jamais exploré avant, à créer un des meilleurs jeux jamais créé. Chapeau bas, messieurs.

I was not prepared for this one. I knew what it was, a first-person puzzler with a splash of philosophy. I was ready for puzzles, and I got excellent puzzles. I was ready for philosophy, and I got some cute interludes and snappy dialogues. What I was not ready for was an ending that fit it all together perfectly, so perfectly that I could barely contain the emotions it inspired. It's remarkable how solid a game The Talos Principle is in just its basic systems, but it is a singular accomplishment how powerful an experience they constitute in the end.

I'm not telling you a damn thing about the story because that's where the magic happens with this one. You awaken in a bright garden among Greek ruins, and are directed to overcome trials scattered across the strange and picturesque world you find yourself in. These trials reward you with sigils which unlock doors that lead you closer to your ultimate goal. There's more going on than just puzzle-solving though, as you'll soon learn from the computer terminals standing among the trees and ruins.

It's a strange and otherworldly setup that frames the experience perfectly, putting you in the right mindset for some philosophical puzzling. The puzzles themselves will be familiar to fans of Portal, featuring buttons to place crates on, laser beams to redirect, force fields to jam, and more. There are about six core mechanics that comprise all the puzzles in how they combine and can be pushed to new functions. Puzzles are color-coded by difficulty and form a nice, smooth difficulty curve up to taxing your brain across the dozen hours or so it will take to complete them all.

There's more to these puzzles than meets the eye, though. Croteam loves secrets in their games, and nearly every level contains at least one secret, usually in the form of stars. Solving puzzles earns you sigils (Tetris pieces, really) that open up gates to later areas, helpfully color-coded for their function and also how difficult they are to obtain. But the stars can be anywhere in a puzzle hub, requiring you to notice slight details, solve clever riddles, or string together a complex solution between multiple puzzles. Gathering sigils will make you feel accomplished, but scoring a star will make you feel like a genius.

Weaving through forcefields and linking laser networks will keep you plenty busy, but the terminals are what will really catch your attention. Every corner of the world has a computer to fiddle with, complete with its own DOS-style text interface. Though you choose your inputs from a menu they cover a wide range of commands and give you access to a perplexing array of files, articles, and correspondences. There's also another aspect of gameplay that you gain access to via terminals that I really really want to tell you about, but you absolutely have to experience it for yourself. It may seem a little off-putting at first, but rarely have I had my own concepts about the world challenged by a game as they were here.

As the story comes together through the terminals and you near the end of your quest, the environments and stakes rise to an impressive pitch. The final areas have a powerful air of permanence to them, as though your choices have far-reaching consequences. Throughout the game the puzzles continue to build in complexity and expand on the concepts they introduce, and nowhere is that more apparent than in the incredible climax. And then it ends, and what follows is without question the best ending I have ever experienced in a video game. It's not the longest or the prettiest or the most complex, but it is the perfect culmination of everything you accomplish in The Talos Principle. It was powerful enough to bring me to tears, and I really don't think there is any higher compliment I can give a game than that.

What started out as a clever puzzle game grew to be one of my all-time top titles because of how expertly it formed a complete experience. Other games have amazing gameplay or story or graphics but rarely, if ever, do these elements combine and compliment each other so effectively. I was curious and uncertain about the game in the early hours but with each puzzle I solved, each terminal I explored, I became more and more drawn into the deep and gorgeous world laid before me. I reached a point where I could no longer bear to leave its secrets hidden, and uncovering them made me weep with joy. The Talos Principle is a game I feel fortunate and privileged to have played, and my time with it will surely remain one of my most treasured gaming memories.



Did you enjoy this review? I certainly hope so, and I certainly hope you'll check out more of them at https://goldplatedgames.com/ or on my curation page!

Talos İlkesi artık Türkçe! Kütüphanenizden Talos Principle'a sağ tıklayıp "public beta"yı seçerek hem ana oyunu hem de DLC Gehenna'ya Giden Yol'u Oyunçeviri'nin yerelleştirmesiyle Türkçe olarak oynayabilirsiniz!

This game is like the Hardcore Version of Portal. Where Portal is Funny, this game is Deep and Serious. Instead of Glados you have a God that is constantly telling you things and speaking with the authority of a really strict God. Instead of Weatley you have these Terminals that try to decypher, just like yourself what is going on, and sometimes you feel like you are talking to a real AI. There are Philosophic Exams that this game make to yourself, and you really discover a few things that you might not know about the Real You. The Plot is awesome. The texts, the recordings, the atmosphere, everything is on place. If you take too long on making a Puzzle, God will tell you that don't take things to seriously, that come back later, and then you feel like doing the exact opposite. You will end up reading and listening carefully to everything you find.

If you like Puzzle games, this game is for you. And if you want a different experience of a game, this game might end up being really special for you.

Grab it on sales, solve puzzles, question your life!

For all Portal lovers out there and just occasional puzzle solvers this gem is not to be passed by.

Pro
+ non-linear: dozens of puzzles available at a time and you can solve them in any order thus never feeling stuck or frustrated
+ puzzle diversity: it's not like you are solving same thing again and again
+ great story: with cool philosophy ideas put into it, talos could rly strike my feelings
+ scalable difficulty: complete the game by solving the minimum required puzzles and skipping the story or dive full in with hardcore quests, easter eggs and who knows, maybe even DLC packs?
+ stunning graphics: from the sunshine flares to that gorgeous rock details the world this game rocks a nice visual style!
+ soundtrack: sometimes I just wanted to run the game just to hear that tunes again.

♥♥♥
- devs could really work on that character animations, though only visible from third person view
- physics in this game is okay for puzzles but feels a bit odd for some object interaction

So I guess I will start this review as I have done for a couple of others and say that I am 75 years young and in ill health. My mind still works even though my body is well passed its best so reactions for combat games are gone. I prefer games that I can manage with my brain rather than speed of hand etc. So - I played Talos 2 on the completion of Tribe Primitive Builder and both were amazing. On that basis I bought and then refunded Talos 1 as it didn't appear much more than a long version of the initial stage of Talos 2. In my review of Talos 2 people urged me to give Talos 1 another go, so I did. And am I pleased I did - thoroughly enjoyable BUT very hard in some places. I manage to get through to the Eternal ending picking up enough stars and the messenger along the way. Little did I know you have to play the whole game again to get to the tower ending (that's a puzzle game in itself).
(I didn't pursue the star door at all)
I'm happy to report I managed the game without looking up any tips etc so pat myself on the back for that.
All in all a game worth any ones money if they like tough puzzle games.
Big thumbs up
John

Possibly the most existential game I've played. Though it is, at it's core, a puzzler. The puzzles are often complex, a few head-scratchers, but sometimes require a more reductionist approach. What may seem complex at first may turn out to be very straightforward. At times it requires you to question the assumptions it has itself given you. Good exercise for the whole brain, as it doesn't train through repetition but demands both creativity and reason, both abstract thought and technical logic. Along with the puzzles a story gradually unfolds. Concepts of self, place and time begin to dawn while another mystery deepens. I like that the story is only hinted at and alluded to, so that you formulate the idea on your own. It makes it that much more meaningful and powerful. It is likely the most existential and eternally relevant topic one could imagine, and the story itself would make a fascinating novel or film. My only complaint is personal, that the game seems to make assumptions concerning beliefs, more specifically, that having them is a universal quality of humans. But this is not at all the case. At times it seemed as though the authors had an agenda to express their own beliefs, but perhaps this was just my suspicion of beliefs in general. The dialogue trees where multiple choice and never once did I actually agree with any of the choices. So it felt like being pigeon-holed and I ended up arguing for a point I didn't actually think was correct. Other than that minor brow-furrowing frustration, I really enjoyed spending time in the beautifully rendered game world. The music was lovely and atmospheric. Extremely smooth play with a good variety of menu options. It's rare that a puzzle game addresses both hemispheres of the brain as well as the subconscious mind. I strongly consider it a work of genius. Oh, and if you decide to play it, I left some messages for you. ;)

Edit for dlc: While a bit on the pricey side for a dlc, it is well worth it. For those seeking greater challenge, many of the puzzles in RtG are considerably more difficult than in the base game. With greater challenge comes greater satisfaction at solving them. Themes from the base game are carried over, and somewhat expanded upon, in a way that I found both humorous and enlightening. It seems to me nothing short of a mirror held up to human nature itself. My earlier point about feeling pigeon-holed in the interactions is rendered moot by new understandings and realizations. So it goes with real learning, when something this worthwhile makes it's dawn across the mind, all one can do is smile. :)

В игре 3 мира (А - В - С) в каждой из которых по 7 (основных) глав + по 2 дополнительных. В каждой из 7 и у 2 дополнительных, имеются по 3-6 локаций, в них же нам нужно собирать некие *Сигилы* проще говоря тетрисенки х) которые помогут нам в дальнейшем



Головоломки также сделаны на отлично. Не уступают Portal 2. и кстати. некоторые могу сказать что есть похожие элементы, да, НО они работают абсолютно по другому. Тот же луч, его можно соединить с несколькими конечными пунктами и элементами сразу, и также учитывается диагональ. А достать звезду это вообще надо реально мозг сломать. Также хорошо сделан элемент машины времени, у твоей копии свои предметы.

Damjan Mravunac - БРАВО!!!!!!!!!!Великолепно!!!Я даже не пожалела и купила OST. Музыка очень меня порадовала. Грамотно подходит к игре.


Конечно схожесть с Семом 3 есть, особенно Египет, но я не считаю это минусом. Хотя однообразие есть. Но в целом каждая локация все таки имеет свою изюминку.

Об игре можно сказать много. Отличная игра с интересным философским сюжетом и сложными головоломками. Смело можете приобретать.

솔직히 표지의 고양이 때문에 50퍼센트는 혹하고 이 게임을 보게된것.

このゲームには３つの謎がある

ひとつは、パズルを解くという、謎解き要素

ひとつは、重厚な世界観があり、世界の謎をを解読していく要素

ひとつは、サムを作った会社が何故このような真面目でマトモなゲームを？


パズルを解けたときは、とても気持ち良く
部屋ごとにある、一つのパズルはとても短いものなので
サクサクと進められます

Portalに嵌った方に特にお勧めです

Comparing The Talos Principle to a game like Portal is unfair, but immediate. The first time I manipulated a gadget to set off a part of a puzzle, I muttered how much it reminded me of the amazing and witty Portal 1 and 2, and that trying to replicate it was unwise. However, I removed my premature opinions and discovered a whole new world of puzzle and story, placed perfectly in what is called The Talos Principle.

The game starts out in ruins, immediately piquing interest and curiosity. This first person interaction makes it impossible to know who you are, or what you are doing in the deserted grounds of what seems like Rome. The land is littered with broken pillars and faulty statues, most of which are missing their heads.

Very shortly after running around, an all powerful voice beams from the skies, introducing himself and welcoming you to his garden. The puzzles ahead are a test to see if you are worthy (of what is unclear) and to strengthen your faith in him, "ELOHIM."

Without going into spoilers, I must say that the story is my favorite part of this game. Despite everything right about The Talos Principle, I’m a sucker for a great story, and very few games have the tone that this one carries beautifully and makes one question the nature of humanity. Almost every word spoken or typed holds a deeper meaning. Nothing is there without reason, and everything is set up in such a way that I didn’t feel left out of anything. There will be no regrets to finishing this game and seeing everything tie together.

Gameplay is very simple, which is nice, because the puzzles are not. Having the option, I opted for controller, assuming I could sit back, relax, and enjoy a nice, scenic mind game. I was wrong. Despite the scenery being beautiful and the music peaceful, my anxiety levels were high, attempting to freeze the laser gun that will shoot you down and sneak past the bots that will blow you up. And that’s within the first puzzles. You can’t do much on your own, only using what is provided to pass each task. It makes learning controls easy, which is nice when you have to take most of your focus into the puzzle.

There are only a handful of gadgets as well, each with a specific task that they do. Don’t be fooled though, because sometimes they are good for more than what they are intended. The puzzles themselves are short, only getting a little longer with time. Difficulty levels vary, but progress nicely with you, rather than slamming you with something impossible. There are also several puzzles per section, which gives you some options in case you get stuck. This attribute is great as the story is a heavy part that everyone should be able to complete.

What the game lacks in wit and comic relief, it replaces with promise and charm as that nagging curiosity presses you forward. There is a lot of content, which can be overwhelming if you want to follow the story, but luckily the audio tracks and journal entries are logged and easy to access at any time.

Another nice feature is the hunt for stars, which can be within the puzzle or just randomly hidden on the selected map. It had a lingering feel of Mario 64 about it. It also gives you a break from some frustrating enigmas and allows you to enjoy the landscapes. The signs are helpful to look at as well, so use them. They even mark off what you have completed, though who does it for you is unknown. Kind of spooky, right?

The Talos Principle doesn’t let down on graphics, either. Each stage and each little world is beautifully done, with sounds and music to match. Voice acting was very well done, allowing you to stay immersed in the game. The settings are almost too good to be real, which makes the game ever more creepy. Keep a look out when just walking around. There are some questionable sights on the rocks, in the water. You are clearly the only one around which raises the question, “where is everyone else?” Though questions like this will be answered, the theories I came up with thanks to the surrounding areas wwere a little unsettling.

With all of the story, the background, creepy settings, and subtle hints, I’d say this game is very replayable, especially if you are like me and forget how to do the puzzles. I know I’m one to miss things the first time around, so going back is always good.

Despite the eerie feeling I got every time I turned the game on, I was so compelled to read the QR codes on the walls, left by others before me. I wanted to understand the notes in the computer library and I wanted to know who ELOHIM really was, and what he wanted with me. All of this and more is explained if you are strong enough to pass over 120 puzzles in The Talos Principle.

游戏性：
TTP，中文名塔罗斯法则，是那种极力讨好玩家的解谜游戏，难度上有足够的高度可以满足玩家的成就感，关卡的梯度设计得很平滑。

整个游戏场景 分为开放式的ABC三个大区和一个中塔，一个大区由7个虚拟场景构成，每个虚拟场景有3到5个解谜的密室，外加1到3个没有围墙限制、整场范围的额外挑战。完成一个密室即奖励一个拼图方块，相应的解密难度根据方块的颜色--绿、黄、红-递增，额外挑战奖励一个星星。只要收集到足够的多拼图，完成一个拼图游戏，便可解锁下一层游戏内容（绿色方块解锁下大区，黄色解锁解谜工具，红色解锁中塔的楼层，星星解锁三个大区各自的额外挑战）。

三个大区 能明显感觉到入门 进阶和挑战 三个层次，一路上因层出不穷的新要素卡住玩家的情况并不明显.. 虽然bonus的星星挑战也有刁钻的寻物要素（有几个可以说是瑕疵），但成分不多，也非主线， 不妨碍整体上“痛快”的感觉。

不过以上绝不是说 游戏本身很简单，工具简单易上手 不代表问题可构造的深度就很浅。随着游戏深入，不只是密室空间本身的复杂度加大， 在规则应用上，也越来越灵活，移动地雷的杀伤目标不分敌友；射线可以穿透密室屏障；接收器的延迟也可以是优势；风扇不只是用来吹的，可以把扇叶拆下来当作按压道具；如果射线被地雷干扰不可避免，可以考虑两条射线同时作用，错开地雷碰触时刻，合作生成时间上的无缝传输....... 箱子+风扇、箱子+传送器、箱子+箱子， 箱子+地雷？？！！... 还有B区开始出现的造影录像工具,这玩意完全没有定式，本身就是无限可能... 甚至在后期 开始出现误导玩家的逻辑假象，故意在某面墙上按装个接收器，诱惑你去拉射线，上当的话就走进死胡同了。。。

归功于温和的上手曲线，即使后期难度加大，相信多数玩家也都可以独立完成主线谜题，但拍桌大喊yes时 定能体会到成功的不易。不像有些解谜游戏，以极力嘲弄玩家智商抬高逼格，这款游戏更像是一套为全民设计的脑力保健操。

TTP的剧情，要我打分的话，我会给和行尸走肉一样的分值，你可以说我主观还处在和本作的蜜月期....反正我就是冷静不下来。这游戏让人思考的太多了，不仅仅是解密...

故事的玩家角色是一个AI机器人，从一开始 天上就有一个扮演上帝的声音， 指引（或者驱使）你去完成这个世界的挑战，以获得所谓的“永生”， 整个气氛像是在宗教描述的史诗世界里。但不久便让人产生了更有意思的动机，你开始注意到这个世界不是真实的，面前的一堵墙 一棵树会像显卡 bug一样瞬闪出马赛克。 严重时世界会崩坏 天空有异响，“上帝”还会报错.... 另外这个看似只有自己存在的世界里，到处都贴着三言两语的字条（QR码），这些留言有的自言自语，有的像是直视着你说话，有的一张紧挨着一张贴讨论问题，像是有无数人到过你现在站立的地方，做过你现在做过的事（也就是解谜啦）， 和你一样不知道反复解谜的动机为何，这一切的背后是否有真相， 上帝是否为骗局.....

然而最主要的剧情载体，是那些散落在游戏各处，像前台一样的电脑。这些电脑表面上是一个超巨型图书数据库的前端， 管理系统 却是一个质疑你是否为一个人类 并一有机会便就此和你辩论不休的AI.... 这个议题也就是TTP游戏剧情最显著的主题，数据库里玩家可翻阅的资料从考古记录到网络聊天灌水，从电子邮件到哲学文献， 都围绕着这一个核心，到底是什么让人类觉得自己是一个人..或者反过来问游戏前握着手柄的玩家， 你怎么确定自己就不是一台机器？ 游戏里 这个不真实的世界存在的意义到底是什么， 游戏外这个世界又是真实的么， 游戏里的角色认为反反复复解谜是生来该做的事， 游戏外，玩家上课 上班也是生来该做的事嘛？ 所谓的真相是什么，人类难道不是循规蹈矩的活着么，为什么要追求真相？ 如果说意识是区分人类和机器的决定要素， 意识又不是客观存在的，为什么不能是设定好的程序安排呢......

在某个大厅里的电脑前 和前端做这种无休止的争论，以及看数据库里的资料， 就这样消磨的时间 有时比在房间里 解开一个密室的用时还长。 这游戏的剧情和游戏解谜内容关联确实不大， 那些电脑的资料一条也不翻，和AI对话闭着眼睛按，大概也不会影响结局，甚至只要你收集到所有星星，登至塔顶，就有good ending， 都不要求你选什么对话。但是在结局 真相和答案摆在眼前时， 那份被不朽力量冲击的感受会告诉你， 在这个游戏的剧情文本上无论花费多少时间都是值得的。

good ending的结局是这个游戏剧情的点睛之笔， 正如拼图谜题中 置入最后一块方块时如释重负的感觉，所有问题，在主角最后一次按下enter时 都有了答案，上帝 、弥尔顿（就是那个前端）、人性的拷问、前赴后继的同类、一遍一遍的周而复始... 一切的一切都只为一个目的。[以下是结局解释， 严重剧透！！另，这是本人一周目后的粗略见解，不能保证绝对正确。游戏内有些文本通关之后 回头看 都会有新发现] 人类在世界末日来临前做了最后一次努力，最后一项工程， 试图挽救人类文明和智慧(包括DNA, 资料中的关键提示)。工程创造的这套系统中， 那部原本只具备逻辑处理能力的程序，同时运行了多条线程， 经过数亿万次重启反复执行这个虚拟世界的探索任务，每一次运行过程都有记忆"前人"和其他的同伴（代号dog sheep...)的教训经验（QR码），都会对真实世界里留下的资料有更深的认知（图书数据库），对上帝有进一步的怀疑（摆脱操作系统的束缚），每一轮和弥尔顿的辩论都更加否定自己的机器本质， 最终，在这些线程的万代更新版本之中， [玩家ID].ver##.####觉醒了， 具备了自主人格，喜怒哀乐,道德良知...而最重要的是 追求真理的好奇心和不惧牺牲的信念.....以此向操作系统发起挑战....随着系统的关闭，这个版本的程序自动下载到真实世界的另一块内存中。 于是，在人类已灭亡数千年之后，一部结合高智商和完整人格的机器人终于诞生。 主角证明了自己即是人类之时， 人类也证明了自身存在的意义，获得了延续的希望。 因为根据塔罗斯法则，血未流尽就不会消亡，主角即是人类血脉中最后一滴精华，而人类必将重生！游戏结局一刻的释放，让整个故事的意义升华到超乎想象的境界。

所以说，不看剧情虽不影响进度，但绝对是一大损失。


最后顺便又要提下语言问题。好消息是TTP原生支持中文，HUD中文，字幕中文，剧情文本中文，甚至还有中文配音，坏消息是除了字幕和HUD，其他没法看。剧情文本简直是机翻， 是那种汉化比英文更难懂的典型...直接玩英文的话，大学四级水平看懂剧情也是无碍的，资料库里的社交信件和留言 ，包括和AI的交流都很通俗。文献资料有很多东西 要掏出手机查维基，切来切去看浏览器真是太伤神了

A computer terminal in the game asked me why I wanted so much to prove I'm human. I spent like 10 minutes thinking, unable to answer.
Thought this was just puzzles, ended up on one of the most philosophical rides a game has ever taken me. 10/10

The burning heart always looks to the highest peak.

Introduction
The Talos Principle is a game unlike any other I’ve ever played. It’s a first / third-person puzzler, yes; but is cast into a class entirely of its own by its narrative focus on philosophy, religion, self-reflection, and the human experience. A game of such subject matter lives or dies on its execution, and all I can say is that The Talos Principle knocks it so far out of the park that the ball undoubtedly entered orbit and landed on the opposite side of the planet. I first played Talos in the summer of 2016, and having replayed and re-reviewed it now in the summer of 2019, I must say it still stands in my mind as one of the greatest games of all time.

Plot
One of the essential aspects of The Talos Principle experience is the mystery of what the hell is going on in the story. At the beginning of the game, you awake in the tranquil ruins of an Ancient Greek courtyard. You are immediately spoken to by an authoritative voice in the sky, telling you that you are risen from the dust, that you walk in His garden, that He is your maker, and that His name is ELOHIM. If you swap into third-person view, you’ll also notice that you’re a humanoid robot. From this point forward you’re set to the task of completing puzzles to collect sigils, listening to Elohim, reading old terminal logs, and conversing with a strange computer program about philosophical problems. It’s all quite cryptic, as the game leaves much about these circumstances to your interpretation and further discovery. Notably analogous to real life, I’d say….

Presentation
Cooling off from the build-up to an existential breakdown, let’s wander down the path of the aesthetic for a moment instead. Originally released in 2014, TTP is admittedly a bit outdated graphically. While the lighting and environmental detail remain absolutely stunning, the textures, animations, and post-processing effects are somewhat hard on the eyes. I find the realistic visual aesthetic of Talos charming, but I can’t say I’m as impressed as I was in 2016. To make up for the dated graphics though, are the wonderful sound design and polished performance. The audio quality is as superb as any AAA release in 2019, with a terrific soundtrack to boot. Talos runs smoothly on all modern hardware too; crashes and bugs are virtually non-existent. Though a bit showing of its age, TTP still presents itself wonderfully.

Gameplay (Puzzles)
As far as the gameplay goes, it’s all varying degrees of puzzling, really. There are three different themed “hub-temples” (hub-worlds), each of which contain seven levels with 3-5 puzzles to complete on them. Finishing a puzzle rewards you with a sigil, which are used to unlock later levels, as well as new tools which allow you to beat other puzzles. It all sounds logistically confusing when written out, but take me at my word when I say it’s not that difficult to understand in-game. The actual puzzles themselves are fun and well balanced, challenging the player with sensible and intelligent problems. Talos’ difficulty curve increases gradually and the puzzles get highly demanding by the end, but I’d never say the game is unfair. Altogether, The Talos Principle is great as a 3D puzzler.

Exploration & Easter Eggs
In TTP, there are plenty of beautiful vistas to find, and side content to consume. The bulk of this side content is contained within computer terminals, each of which hold various documents pertaining to religious and philosophical ideas, or 21st century writings connected to the story of the in-game player character. Every level has an obviously placed terminal to read from, but some are hidden and must be found through exploration. There are also 23 audio logs dispersed throughout Talos, but I will not spoil their purpose. Scattered across the game’s walls are QR codes too, which immediately translate into English to share a message left by robots who had undertaken the trials of Elohim’s world before you. Finally, intense exploration reveals hidden puzzles and funny easter eggs, but I’ll leave them for you to uncover yourself.

Narrative
Getting back to the main narrative, it has three moving parts. The first is the aforementioned ELOHIM, the voice in the sky who portrays himself, for all intents and purposes, as God. He acts as the voice of purpose; telling you yours is to collect sigils, and eventually join him in his kingdom of eternal life. The second is the Milton Library Assistant, who I referred to earlier as a strange computer program accessible in the terminals. Milton acts as the voice of skepticism; cross examining the philosophical beliefs of you as the player, and positing that the reality you exist in isn’t truly real. The last moving piece is one I haven’t mentioned yet – the tower. ELOHIM makes a covenant with you on the outset of the game, stating that all the worlds of TTP are yours to roam, but that if you climb the tower at the center of these realms, “you will surely die.” Milton, of course, urges you to climb it. In short, you may as well be Adam or Eve, caught between The Lord and the serpent; God and Satan.

Religion, Philosophy, & Rationality
If I haven’t already been explicit enough, there’s a clear war of ideas in TTP. ELOHIM is a manifestation of religion and the everlasting human spirit; Milton of rationality and existentialism. The tour de force of their ideologies can only be mediated and put in proper balance by the philosophy of one person, and that’s you. As you navigate the ideological battlegrounds of The Talos Principle, you’ll be challenged on your beliefs and you will be effectively forced to reconsider your understanding of them. This intellectual give and take is what makes TTP so incredible – no game has ever delved into the psyche and motivations of the player so successfully. Talos is the mind game.

Ethos & Purpose
As a quick note of admiration, I simply have to give my heart out to the developers at Croteam. While this game was undoubtedly written by a gaggle of philosophy majors, the purpose of The Talos Principle is anything but obscure. TTP is a brilliant work of passion, cemented as such by the self-awareness of the developers to the limitations of their lives, and that of human life itself. That they chose to expend a portion of their mortality on a video game ensconced in philosophy is an act that can only be described as impossibly mad, and that’s what makes Talos such a work of art. Because that’s exactly what The Talos Principle unquestionably is: a work of art.

Games as Art
While not recognized by the mainstream as such, most people in the world of gaming understand that some titles are works of art. I take the position that The Talos Principle is the most pure work of art video gaming has ever produced. Its excavation of ancient and modern philosophy, the way it synthesizes all this source material into a profoundly meaningful experience, and the interpretive power offered to the player is, to me, the very definition of art. An original creation built upon the work of our forerunners which illuminates new meanings by way of personal interpretation? Nothing could be more good, true, and beautiful.

Conclusion
I think my words up to this point make my opinion of the Talos Principle abundantly clear. It’s a categorical masterpiece as a game, and beyond that, a true work of art. The only flaw I can find is that I can’t play it again for the first time. So, I certainly hope I’ve inspired a… generation to follow in my footsteps, that I’ve been your… shepherd. ELOHIM only knows the price I’d pay to be in your shoes, hearing his first words anew once more.

Behold, child.


(Posted On: 8/13/19)

The Talos Principle is a puzzle indie game developed by Croteam and is in my opinion one of the best puzzle games out there and although not comparable to games such as Portal, it's certainly not too far off. The game is well-polished, with a great storyline that will test your brains even when not completing puzzles.

• Many Puzzles - Probably the most important aspect of puzzle games, and where, unfortunately, many disappoint, is the length. Not here. This game rocks a whopping 129 puzzle levels, enough to keep you busy for several hours! The trickiest part is the bonus "Star Sigils" that are hidden or hard to reach, and in order to do that you have to think outside the box and interact with items from different puzzles at once to obtain them.
  
  
• Interesting Lore - I won't spoil the story much, but around levels you will find terminals which give you access to a library containing many readable text files so you can learn about your purpose and the backstory to the game. These are optional, but offer a good read, and often times include easter eggs and gags.
  
  
• Breathtaking Characters - The peculiar thing about this game is that it made me feel like it had characters within it, even though you never actually see them. There is Elohim, a god-like voice in the Sky, Milton, a PC program and Alexandra, a mysterious woman who left recordings for you to find. Even though the former two are not real, but artificial intelligence, the way you interact with them and the dialogues you can have with Milton really make you feel like there is someone you are interacting with. Croteam managed, using only text messages and voice recordings to give you a sense of wonder. Around the world you can also find QR codes (which I've tested, they are actually real) that are the thoughts of other "players" from the past. Some of them appear often and you can even distinguish their personalities. Wonderfully done.
  
  
• Multiple Endings - A thing I find very important in games is choice. Here, you have an open world, and can complete any puzzle you want, at any time, granted you have enough sigils to unlock the area. After you have enough, you have four possible endings to discover. A nice touch.
  
  
• The Story - I promise, no spoilers. This should probably be the first on the list, but without managing to say much about the story so you can enjoy it, I will just say this: It is amazing. You just wake up, not knowing what or where you are and from that point on you just discover - pay attention to your surrounding, read the library entries, collect the sound files, read the QR codes left by those before you and get to a conclusion yourself. The story is also a reinterpretation of the Bible's Genesis chapter, and after you play the game, you will know why.

• No Custom Levels - The game features Steam Workshop, but it only has a few mods and not really any levels, nor does the game come with a level editor. This could have really extended the lifespan of the game, and I hope it will be implemented in later versions, or at least a free DLC. This does not take away from the gameplay experience and should not stop you from buying it.
  
  
• Level Diversity - Don't get me wrong, the levels are all unique in their own way and each serve a challenge, but the game items are only so many. You have the following logic items: Gates, Turrets, Guards, Lasers, Jammers, Fans, Buttons and Cubes... that's about it. While they are combined in wonderful, different ways, some tricks that are learned through earlier levels almost always give a very big hint on how to solve the difficult puzzles in later gameplay. I would have hoped it is not the same.

The Talos Principle is one of the best puzzle games I've encountered so far and definitely worth a purchase if you like a good mind game with suitable backstory and lore. Purchase with confidence, this indie game has better quality than some AAA games.

喜歡Portal系列的人，一定會喜歡這款。
這款基本上是以Portal為基礎，兩個一樣都是有語音旁白、玩家被丟在某個地方不斷做測試....但這款在各方面都更加強化：更多更有變化的謎題、更大格局的世界觀、劇情分歧、多結局等等....

這款的謎題有一定程度需要動腦，Portal基本上就是兩個門、方塊、槍塔和一些顏料，但這款道具更多了：壓力板、雷射連接器、方塊、風扇、載物板、干擾器、移動地雷等等....道具之間還能組合，比如風扇的扇葉可以拔下來當方塊用、連接器可以放在方塊上，方塊又可以放在風扇上，或是把方塊放在移動地雷上，然後人站上去等等....從中衍伸出一堆變化。其中有某樣道具非常有意思，叫錄影機。它可以把玩家一切的動作錄下來(最多5分鐘)，然後播放後你可以和自己的影像互動！換句話說，那道具可以讓你和自己進行「雙人」合作！但同時這也讓謎題難度大增，因為你甚至可以跟物品的虛像互動....

劇情的表達也是用一種解謎的方式，你可以從各關卡中其他NPC留下的QR code和電腦裡的文件慢慢推敲出劇情全貌，除此之外，電腦裡還有一個很機掰的AI，會一直跟你辯論哲學問題(你永遠講不贏它)，但和它的辯論結果可是會影響到劇情分歧的。

缺點部分有二。一是蒐集要素太....隱密? 這款有3個結局，第3結局要蒐集全50顆星星才能達到，很多星星藏的地方不看攻略根本找不到，看完攻略你甚至會敬佩當初找到的人.....二是這款雖然有支援繁中語音和字幕，但卻是完全機翻。字幕機翻的部分官方有開放文字檔給大家修改，我個人有先做初步的修改，所以姑且比之前版本還要具有可讀性了。但語音部分無解，因為配音員是照著機翻字幕唸的！有時真的不忍去聽，我想配音員應該多少也覺得台詞怪怪的吧...

卧槽！我就问一句话： 封面的猫咪在哪里？！！！

话说后面冥王星人大佬给我了一份攻略，有了这份攻略，大家可以顺利吸到猫了（喵喵喵

另外，我真的真的没有3D眩晕症的说···

但是，玩半个小时还是会恶心是什么情况啦···

Отзывы об игре были довольно однотипны: "Философский Portal!", "GOTY 10/10", "Я хочу от этой игры детей!" . И отнесся я к этому проекту, конечно, скептически, подозревая подвох, специально не ожидая чего-то особенного, но игру приобрести все же очень захотелось, причем как можно скорее. Да и как , в общем-то, претензия на подобные возгласы могла не заинтересовать?

Итак, Вы - андроид, вы находитесь в невероятно красивых садах Элохима, совмещающих античный стиль и технологии(одна из необычных черт игры). Элохим - Бог ваш и Создатель (Властелин, если угодно). Кто Вы, что Вы, почему Вы - игра не отвечает, но при этом дает игроку возможность узнать самому. Способы познания, увы, прозаичные (разрозненные файлики и аудио, как примитивно), к тому же сюжет почти не связан с геймплеем. Но как раз таки то, что не лежит на поверхности, может оставить самые приятные впечатления об игре.
Но не сразу. На первый взгляд, поданные игроку клочки информации кажутся попыткой Croteam заесть интеллектуальный голод Серьезного Сэма. Аспектов философии авторы касаются лишь поверхностно, но зато приплели всю тусовку, которые стали косвенными соавторами игры: это мифология, древнегреческие философы, Ричард Доккинз, Айзек Азимов, Мильтон и, конечно, Holy Bible.
Но это лишь первый взгляд, ошибочный. На самом деле связь между клочками проследить не так сложно, и к концу игры внимательный игрок может представить картину событий. Осознаешь, что абстрактные вопросы метафизики заданы не просто так, что все здесь имеет смысл и что игра по сути очень продуманная. И тогда сказать можно одно: браво, сценаристы. Проработка действительно на высшем уровне, но отдельное браво хочется сказать не за это , а за то, что Принцип Талоса может подтолкнуть полностью переосмыслить свои взгляды и моральные установки, в которых Вы , вроде бы, полностью уверены. Реализовано это в виде "Змия" - Milton Library Assistant, это система терминалов, разбросанных по миру. Но не буду раскрывать все карты. Итак, далее.

Геймплей. В основном, цель игрока - достать левитирующую фигурку из тетриса, что называется в этом странном мире сигил (Элохим очень любит пафос). По сути геймплей является Portal 3 без.. порталов. Сравнения с паззлами от Valve не избежать, ведь даже сами разработчики The Talos Principle иронично подмечают сходство с Portal. Очень многие элементы геймплея перебежали в принцип Талоса, но есть и свои идеи. Например, деактиватор, использование призмы и штатива, новые вражины и.. Все? Ах да, есть еще нечто на подобии использования клона. Что, мы видели это в моддификации Portal "Thinking with Time Machine"? Ну, что поделать. Тем не менее, головоломки остаются неимоверно интересными, некоторые из головомок позволяют помимо логики также блеснуть креативностью. Иначе я бы просто не прошел игру до конца. А вот и недостаток: их слишком много. Да, это позволяет утолить голод, чтобы после прохождения не мучала жажда по паззлам. Но это же невероятно утомляет, так как некоторым комнатам не хватает где-то сложности, где-то оригинальности, все однотипное , несмотря на меняющиеся антуражи (кстати , прекрасные, или я уже говорил?). Порой хочется всучить разработчикам ножницы, ведь количество не есть качество. Этой утомляющей однотипности частенько не хватает порталовского экшена и неубывающей оригинальности в паззлах. Но все геймплей выдержан на достойном уровне, пусть и не дотягивающего до именитой поделки Valve.

Последнее и самое субъективное — это разговор о том, как игра выглядит и звучит. Здесь все неплохо, да и откровенно ругать The Talos Principle не за что — и музыка, и звуки, и графика вполне успешно создают необходимую атмосферу и настроение. Юмор редкий, но меткий. Все более, чем сбалансировано.

Попытаюсь подвести итог. На The Talos Principle можно вылить тонны осуждений. Например, за монотонность, скучность и даже, мать вашу, отсутствие обещанных котиков. Игра не метит во всеобщую аудиторию, но ознакомиться с проектом явно стоит, возможно, даже не ради головоломок (такой вот парадокс). Лично для меня, несмотря на собственную же критику, The Talos Principle - шикарная игра, которая надолго запомнится. Философский Portal? - Звание подтверждено. Ведь пусть и поверхно затрагивая метафизику и греческую философию, Принцип Талоса заставит задуматься над самыми простыми вопросами, например, являешься ли ты, блуждающая душа, человеком, и в конце концов, "Тварь ли я дрожащая, или право имею?!"

10/10

写在最前面：
作为一位国服玩家，这款游戏的态度是十分诚恳的。特意调整过的的定价（美服原价35$还是更多不是很记得了），界面，文本，配音的全部汉化（虽然我觉得汉语配音Elohim没有英文配音的那种高高在上的感觉）都可以看出制作组的诚意和用心，是一款难得的用心之作。


画面 9/10
首先，作为一款解谜游戏，画面并不是显得那么的重要，但是，毕竟是使用的Serious Engine 4引擎，画面和光影效果，在解密类的可以算做事比较惊艳的了。在一些宏大的场面，例如高塔，hub b，还有高塔电梯上的风景，光线和恰当的景深都完美的表现出了气势和苍凉。光影在天气转化时特意制作的云朵的阴影，也是非常贴心的小细节。不过不知道为什么我在玩Hub A的一些关卡时出现了3D眩晕感，不过在适当调整画面设置后就没有这种感觉了。

剧情 9/10
本作的剧情可以分为3根线（个人理解），主要是探讨了生命存在的意义，思维的意义，毁灭的意义这种高深的问题。
（以下内容涉及轻微剧透，将以隐藏形式继续，请慎重阅读。） 剧情的主要来源，也主要有3个渠道，Elohim的话语和关卡名称，语音备忘录，与智能系统的交流和其中的文本。当然还有大量的QC码可以收集，但个人认为大多数与主要剧情无关。从成就系统也可以看到这几根线索和不同的结局（这是官方剧透吗lol） 不过大多数其中的深意要考个人的理解，我也不做更多评论，是值得用心去体会的故事。

谜题 8/10
游戏设计了不同难度的谜题和官方的助手（需要解密去赢得），难度有循序渐进的过程。不过，个人感觉关卡提示还是有些少，有1个中等难度的关卡我卡了很久（非红色关卡还不能使用助手）。解密的工具有5种，连接器（ 传送光和充当重物 ），方块（ 增加高度和重物 ），风扇（ 吹起角色和物品，拆下的部分可以充当重物 ），录像器（ 录制自己的动作，之后以镜像形式播放 ）和平板（ 举起物品 ）。总体的难度和关卡数量还是很棒的。

收集要素 7/10
收集要素有2种，星星和QC码。星星的收集需要解密，而且多数谜题都是非常棒的设计（核心是 Think out of the box）。不过QC码的设定就很讨厌了，我完全不知道会有多少数量，每个区域有多少，总之呢，又是强迫症的噩梦，不过不会显示在成就统计以外的任何地方，还是可以让我安心的忽略掉的。

音效 8/10
BGM还是很赞的，不同环境配以不同基调，很好的扩展了环境特定场景觉。配音演员（英文版）的声线的选择都完美的贴合了角色的设定，表现完美。

总体 9/10
Croteam第一款非突突突的解谜大作，无论从画面，音效，剧情，谜题都无可挑剔的作品，有开创新的传奇系列的潜质。但个人认为谜题本身设计难度较高，提示也偏少，解谜过程缺乏动作要素，都可能成为吸引不是非常喜爱解谜类游戏玩家的障碍，使其无法达到传送门系列的高度。但是就游戏品质和制作组的诚意而言，应该是14年里最棒的解谜游戏，期待续作。

Diğer oyunların yanında Talos'un yeri bambaşka.. Neden ?
Alışılagelmişin dışına nasıl çıkabildi Talos ?

Yanıt;
-Akıllıca tasarlanmış, bazen sizi saatlerce uğraştıran ama geçirdiğiniz her dakikada eğlendiğiniz bulmacalarla değil.
-Sizi çok çok farklı bir şekilde düşünmeye zorlayan bu bulmacaları çözerken geçirdiğiniz saatlerde hep yanınızda olan, ve şahsen benim 60+ saat dinlememe rağmen "eeh yeter lan" diyemediğim gibi, rastgele başka biryerde (CS:GO) denk geldiğimde tüylerimin diken diken olmasına neden olan, "Gelmiş Geçmiş En İyi Soundtrackler" listemin ilk 5'indeki müzikleri\ambiyans sesleri değil.
-Herhangi bir yazılımsal\grafiksel açığın olmaması(Road to Gehenna hariç), saat gibi sorunsuz çalışması değil.
-İlginç gizli içerikleri değil.
-Başarılı ve gerçekçi grafikleri de değil.
-...

Talos size minyatür bir "varoluş sorunu" inşa ediyor. Sizi sorular sormaya, cevaplar aramaya sürüklüyor.
İçinizde uyuyan o devamlı sorular soran, meraklı çocuğu uyandırıyor.
Felsefe ve edebiyatı o kadar mükemmel bir şekilde birleştirip önünüze sunuyor ki, DVD'yi kutulayıp şehir kütüphanesine bağışlayasınız geliyor. (Size öyle gelmeyebilir. Belki de bu sadece benim manyaklığımdır.)

Söylemeden de edemiyeceğim; Croteam'in(Hırvat) son 10 yıldır yaptığı tek şey Serios Sam. Daha da bişey demem. Serious Sam nereyee, Talos nereye...

Talos yepyeni bir tür ortaya çıkarıyor, buna felsefî\edebî görsel,etkileşimli öykü diyebiliriz..
Talos'un gördüğü ilgi çok da iyi değil. Buna dayanarak başka benzer bir yapımın geleceğinden pek de ümitli değilim.

Kasım 2016 düzenlemesi : Steam Oyun Ödüllerinde Talos'u kendi belirlediğim "The “Philosophy” Award" ödülüne aday gösterdim. Umarım kazanır.

Özetle : Talos Principle > Açık Öğretim Felsefe (4 Yıl)

The Talos Principle jest doskonałe. Bierz razem z DLC Road to Gehenna i idź grać.

Swą historię twoja postać zaczyna otoczona zarośniętymi ruinami czegoś na kształt świątyni. Po powstaniu z ołtarza boski głos zaprasza nas dalej i zachęca do zbierania sigili, dzięki którym możemy osiągnąć życie wieczne. Pierwsza para zagadek, która uczy nas funkcji jammera deaktywującego mechanizmy, kończy się ścieżką do małego huba z kolejnymi sigilami. Po drodze można zauważyć namalowane na ścianach kody QR; szybko okazuje się, że nie jesteśmy tutaj pierwsi - przed naszym androidem tę krainę zwiedziły setki iteracji poprzedników, którzy takimi kodami porozumiewają się ze sobą i opisują swoje przemyślenia na tematy poruszane w archiwum wiedzy.

Jeżeli religijnych nawiązań jeszcze ci mało - bóg Elohim oferuje dostęp do całego swojego obszernego świata, za wyjątkiem stojącej na środku wieży. Oczywiście mamy też odpowiednik węża: w terminalach pojawia się głos namawiający do działań na przekór stwórcy. Dlaczego miałbyś nie wspinać się na kolejne piętra wieży... Czyżby Elohim miał coś do ukrycia?


Pierwszy poziom to zaledwie początek rozgrzewki. Po rozwiązaniu kilku jammerowych zagadek teleporter prowadzi nas do większego huba z siedmioma ponumerowanymi poziomami, z czego każdy kryje kolejne sigile i ciężkie do znalezienia gwiazdki. Złapane sigile - w postaci tetrisowych klocków - służą do odblokowania nowych mechanizmów rozgrywki, takich jak connector do prowadzenia wiązek lasera czy kostka która podniesie, zablokuje, przyciśnie, posprząta i wypierze.

Dlaczego "rozgrzewki"? Bo te siedem poziomów to zaledwie śmiesznie proste przygotowanie do całej reszty. Wszystkich sigili jest grubo ponad setka, z czego każdy kryje się za unikalną zagadką wymagającą użycia wielu mechanizmów naraz. Dziesiątki gwiazdek porozrzucanych po poziomach są jeszcze trudniejsze do zdobycia; nierzadko wymagają myślenia poza schematami i daleko poza granicami pojedynczej zagadki. Spora część z nich ma więcej niż jedno rozwiązanie, skąd bierze się radocha z pokonania ciężkiego problemu na swój własny sposób.


Świat gry jest, poetycko mówiąc, zajebiście piękny. W jednym z późniejszych poziomów złapałem się na tym, że pół godziny biegałem po całej mapie i strzelałem screeny zamiast rozwiązywać zagadki. Idealnie pasujący soundtrack pomaga w tworzeniu świetnego klimatu, zwłaszcza w zakazanej wieży, w której możemy użyć zebranych klocków. Atmosferę podkręcają wszędobylskie teksty zostawione przez poprzedników, z czego niektóre nie są automatycznie odkodowywane.

Gra jest pełna easter eggów i nawiązań do innych gier: The Swapper, Portal czy Serious Sam, którego jest tutaj najwięcej, jako że to również dziecko Croteam. Niekiedy można znaleźć wiaderko z farbą, która pozwala na pozostawienie wiadomości dla Steamowych znajomych, więc podczas grania trafią na twój kod QR. Smaczków tego typu jest więcej niż jesteś w stanie znaleźć; część z nich wymaga od gracza sporego poświęcenia, na przykład zdobycia wszystkich sigilów i gwiazdek na mapie, znalezienia innego ukrytego przedmiotu i dopiero z jego pomocą otworzenie głęboko schowanych drzwi czających się za dwoma turretami.


Opcji jest tu od groma; najczęściej korzystałem z ukrywania interfejsu, żeby nie zasłaniać chmurek na screenach, oraz ze zmiany widoku z FPP na TPP, by zajrzeć co kryje się za wyższą od robota ścianą. Duże wrażenie robi liczba dostępnych języków - jest ich aż dwanaście, każdy z pełnym audio i napisami. Polska wersja jest nawet zjadliwa, lecz po przyzwyczajeniu się do oryginału ciężko było mi słuchać nie do końca pasującego głosu Elohima. Prawdopodobnie gdybym zaczął po polsku nie miałbym żadnych uwag.

Steam Controller jest wspierany natywnie, dzięki czemu konfiguracja sterowania jest bajecznie prosta. Spośród kilku gier które testowałem, ta jest pierwsza z taką obsługą SC.


The Talos Principle jest doskonałe. Bierz razem z DLC Road to Gehenna i idź grać.

*Since this review was getting more attention, I decided to add to my review down at the bottom.*


The best thing, hands down, about The Talos Principle, is that it runs on my piece of junk laptop, and it still looks beautiful. So, if you're worried about your computer not being able to run the game, then fear not. I have a crappy integrated graphics card, and I can still run this game and its silky smooth.

Now, lets get to the gameplay.

As others have said, you are just dropped into the world, and expected to figure things out for your self. There is no 'tutorial' on what objects do what or how you are supposed to solve a puzzle. You just figure it out.

One of my other favorite things about the game is the little QR codes that are strewn about the levels/world. Past 'test subjects' would leave notes for future 'test subjects'. Now, you can point your cursor at the QR code in game and it will display it, but I decided to download a QR code reader on my smart phone and scanned it with my camera and it reads it. Which I find is a really nice touch.

All in all, this is a fantastic and beautiful puzzle game. If you are a portal fan, then you'll deffinitely want to get this game. And remember, it will run smoothly on the crappiest of rigs.

*Addition*

-Since this review is gaining more attention, I decided to add a little more to my origional review of The Talos Principle.

One of the things I failed to mention the first time, is how the game is sort of non-linear.
There are 3 'for the sake of this review, lets call them sections' sections. A, B, and C. in each section, there are multiple worlds. In each world, there are multiple puzzles. If you're stuck on a puzzle, and can't figure it out, then you can just walk away and go to a different puzzle. When you're in the worlds, you can solve the puzzles in any order that you want and at your own pace, which I find really nice.

Make sure to fully explore the worlds as well. There are many hidden QR codes and terminals and secrets to discover.

-------------------------------------如果你也遇到以下情况--------------------------------------

1. 关于Talos的最大解谜难点——晕3D，在游戏设置里把视野领域调至最大（120.00），能有效降低眩晕感。
2. 我在用手提玩的时候（WIN10，N卡）会遇到无限弹窗至桌面的BUG，经测试，只要在图形选项里把API渲染切换成DX9即可解决。

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

我从来没试过玩一款游戏会晕3D，Talos做到了！而且做得相当棒！！
所以说这就是我瞎逼赞的理由？！

（追评）5小时玩后感：
这是一款我顶着眩晕也要玩下去的解谜大作，我只能用“欲罢不能”这种污意词来形容。噫！
以我目前的游戏进度来说，主线的解谜尚未有太大难度，然而Talos拥有丰富的彩蛋和探索要素以及万恶的星星收集，足够让我这种喜欢瞎JB逛的玩家乐此不疲地浪费时间了。
至于大家都提到的机翻中文问题，我个人感觉还是聊胜于无吧，毕竟这游戏探讨的本来就是“存在主义”这一类晦涩难懂的主题，机翻虽然词不达意但却毫无违和感 = = 至少还不至于影响游戏体验。其实你们为啥就不试试繁体中文翻译呢？

The puzzles are good, if perhaps very slightly too easy, and it's definitely the most competent treatment of philosophy I've ever seen in a video game* (speaking as someone who 1. has played a lot of video games and 2. has a PhD in philosophy**). Definitely worth buying, if not necessarily at full price.

*If you ARE a philosopher, though, or are philosophically inclined, you might suffer some mild frustration at being limited by multiple choice answers to complicated questions - though again, the options you are presented with are generally better than you might expect from a game.
**Please forgive me if mentioning this makes me seem like a d**k.

Выдающаяся, расслабляющая ваш спинной и напрягающая головной мозг, головоломка с неповторимой атмосферой, достойным графическим дизайном и совершенно мозговыносящим сюжетом. Если кто-то считает, что головломки - это скучно, - дайте ему The Talos Principle.
Игра также поднимает достаточно серьезные, с большой буквы философские вопросы и будет заигрывать напрямую с вашим мировоззрением и мироощущением. Оторваться от игры - крайне сложно.
Подход разработчиков заслуживает отдельного упоминания. Множество любопытных и хитро спрятанных пасхалок, отсылки к современной культуре и цивилизации и, в конце концов, буквально идеальная сложность и дизайн самих головоломок. Эта игра - лучше подавляющего большинства Triple-A проектов. Ее минусы один и он вполне себе дискутивен - игра является бюджетной и местами это ощущается, но нисколько, ни на йоту, не снижает общего ощущения от игры. Обилие же графических настроек (поистине обилие - чувствуется, что это PC-игра) позволяет вам получить невероятно сочную и приятную картинку.
Если вы достаточно неглупый человек, вы испытаете истинное удовольствие от лучшей игры 2014 года - The Talos Principle.
10/10.

Как же мало выходит действительно стоящих головоломок в последнее время... И вот вышла игра от создателей Крутого Сэма, к которой я сначала относился скептически, но когда запустил... Практически взахлеб прошел всю игру.

Начинается игра с пробуждения. Главный персонаж - безымянный робот-андроид просыпается в неизвестном месте. Что это за место? Как он туда попал? Все это предстоит разузнать игроку.
С первых минут игра поражает своей атмосферой. Светит солнышко, играет расслабляющая музыка, повсюду древние руины... Красотища!
Но я отвлекся. Ах, да пробуждение... Так вот. Таинственный голос с небес сообщает нам, что он - Элохим, бог этого места и что это его мир и здесь свои законы, а главный персонаж - Дитя Всевышнего. Но он не единственное дитя - он один из многих и создан с целью проходить испытания, и если он пройдет их все - его ждет великий дар... Вечная жизнь. Неплохая завязка, а?
По ходу игры мы узнаем что есть несколько миров, точнее садов с испытаниями - Земля A, Земля B (или Земля Смерти) и Земля C (Или Земля Веры), а так же огромная башня в которую Элохим строго настрого запрещает заходить. Остальную информацию нам придется собирать по крупицам на терминалах разбросанным по мирам. До конца игры сохраняется интрига "Что же в этой башне черт побери?!" и когда вы все-таки раскроете тайну этого места, вам дадут на выбор три совершенно разных концовки. Не буду спойлерить, но сюжет получился очень глубоким, пропитанным философией, а так же заставляющим задуматься.

Головоломки здесь подобны головоломкам из игр серии Portal (Только без порталов xD). На протяжении игры мы будем проходить различные комнаты-головоломки (здесь их около 120-ти), которые по началу кажутся простыми - открывай двери, да собирай фигурки из тетриса (так называемые сигилы - это основная цель каждого испытания). Но вскоре появляются различные элементы значительно усложняющие процесс. Как по мне, здесь идеальная сложность - не легко, но и не слишком сложно, мозги все равно придется включать.

The Talos Principle 

Une capture d'écran de The Talos Principle

Par : Hannibal

Плюсы:
+ Шикарный сюжет
+ Несколько концовок (Есть концовка с котиком. С КОТИКОМ, КАРЛ!)
+ Отличная музыка
+ Приятная графика
+ Атмосфера
+ Идеальная сложность

Минусы:
Не заметил минусов.

Итог: Потрясающая игра. Просто потрясающая. Не ожидал. Получилась идеальная продуманная головоломка с глубоким сюжетом, наполненная к тому же множеством пасхалок и отсылок. Она хорошо сможет размять мозги и даст пищу для размышлений. Советую всем, и особенно любителям серии Portal.

10 сигилов из 10

There are essentially 2 reasons why you'll ever want this game:

Gameplay - think 'Portal' or 'The Turing Test': gameplay doesn't offer much more than that, but the challenge is still there nonetheless. There're a ton of puzzles that can challenge your brain matter without being a huge time sink, while each spurring you to 'complete one more': they are also quite forgiving in terms of starting puzzles over or attempting to retrace steps. Knowing your avatar is 'merely' a robot somehow nags at the back of your mind as you strive to solve puzzle after puzzle - would an AI have done this better (Especially the tetris bit)? If so, how am I faring against it? Thoughts like this blend into the next point...

Philosophy/religion - this was the surprise that they did not have to tack onto the story but still did so to amazing effect. Through countless 'random' articles and the brilliant recordings of Erin Fitzgerald you can't help but find yourself sucked into the metaphysical questions and conundrums the game raises...and at the end; a Soma-esque ending that left me devastated...and changed. If a game can do this to you, especially not even through it's main 'game' mechanic...why wait?

If you've tried and loved The Turing Test or Soma and want more of the same, this won't disappoint. Especially if you're currently pondering the point of your life, or of humanity, history and religion as a whole: have no doubt; this one is for you. It's actually better than Soma as it doesn't tip over the edge into Nihilism, which my tired mind truly appreciates. I cannot fully describe how the points raised in the game mirrored the ideas I had going in my mind for so long yet had no way to put a name to; or to know that it was something the whole of humanity actually feels: Existentialism.

Play for the puzzles. Stay for the insights.

我会说玩这款游戏是因为看中了封面上的那只猫嘛= =+

Talos je výjimečná hra. Zlí jazykové tvrdí, že je přehypovaná a něco pravdy na tom bude, ale přesto to neznamená, že by Talos nebyl výjimečný a do jisté míry i unikátní.

Talos je takový zážitek, že po (několikanásobném) dohrání litujete především toho, že už je konec a nic jiného už v té hře prostě nenajdete (pokud nebudu počítat obsah tvořený hráči a přístupný přes Steam Workshop). A to mám za sebou přes 60 odehraných hodin - stejně mně to nestačí...

Další věc, která Vás bude mrzet, je kvalita - Talos je tak zatraceně dobrý, že v duchu perfekcionismu hořce litujete, proč není dokonalý. Jsou to většinou buď detaily nebo záležitosti z oblasti sci-fi, tj. dosti patrně nerealizovatelné v rámci rozpočtu, který měl Croteam, narozdíl od třeba Valve, k dispozici.

Tedy k těm záporům, abych mohl na konci zase chválit:

• Fotorealistická grafika je tak trochu bič, který si grafici upletli sami na sebe. Vzhledem k nízkému počtu detailů je někdy na škodu, viz exteriéry ve Vanishing of Ethan Carter. Obecně chybí členitosti, dekorace,... prostě šlehačka :-)
  
• Animace. Je jí málo, zejména to vynikne při pohledu třetí osoby. Jak moc by hru pozvedlo tak málo - pořádné a detailní animace používání nástrojů, chůze a skákání postavy, ach jo...
  
• Scénář. Chápu, že napřed bylo vejce a pak slepice, tedy napřed byly puzzly a pak se to muselo na něco narazit. A dopadlo to více než skvěle. Jenže to mohlo dopadnout GENIÁLNĚ. Vysvětlím na spoilerech: Rozhodnutí, které musíte před tváří (nebo spíš před hlasem) EL0HIM činit, to nejsou zase tak závažná rozhodnutí nebo zkoušky. Je škoda, že neměl v rukávu zásobu triků jako bouře, hořící keře, různá zjevení a vize. Rovněž nemusíte činit žádné morální volby a jestli Miltona přesvědčíte, že jste lidskou osobou, je vastně herně jedno.
  Velká, převeliká škoda. Ta adventurní složka hry mohla být naprosto epická, při tom všem, co měli autoři nadosah ruky a co mohli rozpoutat.
  Dalším problémem je zjevá inkonzistence příběhu v případě, že zakončíte hru jako jeden ze svatých apoštolů EL0HIM. Kromě toho, že tento konec vyznívá skutečně až přílič mučednicky a nikoliv monumentálně a neuspokojivě, tak je nelogický: abyste se stali apoštoli božími, museli jste hned několikrát vysloveně porušit jeho explicitní příkaz, tj. projít věž? To prostě nesedí... a to je velká škoda.
  
• Detaily - to už je pihňání, ale souhra mnoha detailů dokresluje dojem z celku a ten bohužel není stoprocentní... o co líp by vypadlo, kdyby se např. konektor při zapojení napřed rozrotoval s nějakým zvukem a pak teprve propojil paprsek, kdyby zvukové cache vypadaly rovněž jako terminály, kdyby vysílače a přijímače laserů měly stejný a skvělý žlutočerný design jako ostatní nástroje, kdyby informace o aktuální levelu a vůbec HUD byl rovněž přístupný přes terminály, kdyby se s terminály dalo skutečně komunikovat psaním na klávesnici a ne jen vybíráním přednastavených odpovědí (ano, chápu, že tohle už je sci-fi požadavek)...

S výše uvedeným by byl Talos hrou s absolutním hodnocením. Proč má ode mě "jenom" 9,9/10:

• Scénář - ano, není dokonalý. Ale Talos je první hrou, u které - budete-li chtít - si slušně zafilozofujete. Budete přemýšlet o otázkách existence, vědomí, života, jeho smyslu a účelu, o vědě, víře a jejich vzájemném vztahu... ovšem pouze když budete chtít. Když ne, máte tu nelineární logickou 3D hru s nudnými texty v divných terminálech. Ale právě ten kontext a filozofování dělá Talos tak výjimečným a mimořádným... ať už je to do jisté míry napasované a nenarativní, čert s tím.
  
• Grafika a hudba - grafika má svoje nedostatky, to už jsem zmínil, ale přesto se na hru dobře kouká. Hudba je natolik skvělá, že jsem neváhal zakoupit sobě soundtrack. Dohromady to tvoří skvělou atmosféru, díky které se nebudete chtít od hry odstrhnout...
  
• Puzzly - každý srovnává s Portalem. Budiž, byť autoři se zjevně inspirovali i u jiných her. Přesto, že snad kromě rušiček jsou všechny elementy puzzlů okoukané z jiných her a není zdá žádný "super nápad" jako byly portály nebo manipulátor v Antichamberu, puzzly jsou prostě zábavné a od určité chvíle i zajímavě obtížné, narozdíl od zmíněného Portalu, kde nějaké delší záseky při průměrné inteligenci hráče asi nehrozí. Puzzlů je v Talosu 120, resp. 129, a to mluvím jen o tom, co bychom v Portalu nazvali "test chambers"; v Talosu se řeší a přemýšlí a hledá a zkouší i "mezi" ;-)
  
• Open world a nelinearita - tohle bývají zabijáci narace, ale v Talosu se s tím autoři vypořádali nadmíru slušně. Hádanky a herní světy si procházíte v téměř libovolném pořadí, takže žádné Portalovské koridory. Hra samotná může v důsledku rozhodování hráče končit 4, resp. 3 způsoby. Tady lze jen litovat, že rozhodování není košatější... V otevřeném světě lze navíc nechávat vzkazy ostatním hráčům, resp. přátelům na Steamu. Taková drobnost, ale potěší :-)
  
• Humor - hodně hráčů Talosu vytýká absenci humoru, ale on tam je! Jen je poněkud subtilnější povahy. Historie v příběhu Talosu je až usedavě smutná a stejně jako na pohřbu nebudete s buranským tónem vykládat vdově vtipy o doktorech, nečekejte v Talosu žádnou nemístnou řachandu, ale velmi jemný, sžíravý, ironický a jako troud suchý anglický humor jedné z "postav", která se představí jako Milton. A pak ve hře najdete...
  
• ...EasterEggy a Secrety, které skutečně často dost pobaví. Ať už samotné o sobě nebo narážkami na kopu jiných her, namátkou: Portal, Minecraft, HL2, Swapper, pochopitelně Serious Sam, ad. Nehrál jsem snad hru, která by toho obsahovala tolik. A navíc: pokud rádi hledáte secrety a tajná místa, v Talosu si přijdete na své: hledají se zde hvězdičky, které odemykají speciální úrovně. Hvězdičky jsou brilantně poschovávané a k jejich objevení je často třeba použít úplně jiný systém přemýšlení, než při řešení jednotlivých puzzlů. Bravo! I když... ...schovat něco v koruně stromu, to mně přijde i na secret dosti nedůstojné a tak nějak proti slušným zásadám level designu...
  
• Sigils of Elohim - tohle je minihra, kterou si můžete stáhnout na Steamu zdarma: můžete otevíráním "tetrisových zámků" odemykat různé bonusy, vč. hvězdiček! Bravo! Stačí tedy v Talosu najít 27/30 hvězdiček a namísto kazení zážitku návodem, získat chybějící hvězdičky přes Sigils of Elohim. Super.

Bylo to vyčerpávající, myslím. Já vyčerpán jsem a kdo dočetl až sem, tak nepochybně taky. Pokud bych měl vše shrnout: Talos překonává můj zbožňovaný Portal, anžto je násobně delší, má skvělé hádanky a několik vyšších myšlenek, spoustu secretů a může na konci (resp. jednom z konců) i dojmout: ne tím, že už je konec (to bude jen mrzet), ale svou lidskostí.

Have a nice day. ▓

Une réussite totale. Un pur chef d'oeuvre. Un grand moment videoludique. Ce sont, je pense, les qualificatifs les plus appropriés pour décrire The Talos Principle. Et non, je n'exagère vraiment pas.

Cette impression de réussite, on la remarque dès les premières minutes de jeu tant le jeu est beau à en crever. Mais vraiment. Chaque nouveau monde exploré donne l'impression de se retrouver dans un véritable tableau vivant dans lequel on a envie de déambuler et de se perdre, afin mieux en découvrir les divers coins cachés, le tout bercé par une bande-son tout simplement magistrale et qui renforce encore plus ce sentiment d'apaisement qui émane des lieux visités.

Et rassurez-vous, il n'est nul besoin d'avoir une bête de guerre pour profiter de cette claque artistique. La config recommandée sur la fiche produit est largement suffisante pour faire tourner le jeu et profiter en plus de ces graphismes enchanteurs. D'un point de vue technique, il n'y pas à dire, le Serious Engine 4 fait le taf, et il le fait bien : avec une GTX 560 Ti et les graphismes configurés en High, il n'y a pour ainsi dire pas de baisse de fps, pas de saccade, pas de bug graphique. Ça tourne nickel et tant le niveau de détail des textures que la distance d'affichage sont à couper le souffle.

Du point de vue gameplay, on est donc dans un First Person Puzzle, un jeu d'énigmes en première personne. Il y a trois types d'énigmes. Le premier type consiste à retrouver des pièces de puzzle façon Tetris (appelés Sigils ou Sceaux dans le jeu) situées dans des sorte d'arènes ou de labyrinthes (certains utiliseront le terme chambre de test, on ne leur en voudra pas), et ce, en usant divers objets mis à disposition (lasers, brouilleurs d'objets, "Hexaèdres" et autres). Ces Sceaux, une fois collectés, vous permettront d'avoir accès à de nouveaux objets et à de nouvelles zones en jeu en résolvant un deuxième type d'énigmes, à savoir des puzzles classiques (utilisant les pièces façon Tetris sus-citées). Le troisième type d'énigme regroupe les plus compliquées de toutes et consiste à récupérer des Etoiles dont on se gardera de dire ce qu'elles font précisément afin d'éviter tout spoiler. Les trouver et plus encore les récupérer mettra vos neurones à rude épreuve tant ces énigmes sont parmi les plus dures du jeu. Les résoudre nécessiteront, dans la plupart des cas, de réfléchir différemment, voire de "désapprendre" certains concepts, ou même carrément de "casser" certaines arènes !

Comme on peut le voir, la diversité est au rendez-vous et la difficulté est très bien dosée : les premières énigmes sont très simples alors que les dernières requièrent un véritable effort mental pour être résolues. Et rassurez-vous, si jamais vous deviez caler sur une énigme, il est possible de la laisser de côté pour y revenir plus tard : le jeu est, en effet, semi-ouvert et se compose de trois "mondes" principaux (accessibles assez rapidement), eux-mêmes composés de 7 zones principales (immenses et accessibles librement une fois le monde débloqué) et qui, elles-mêmes sont composées de 3 à 6 "arènes" (sans compter en plus les zones et niveaux secrets). En revanche, ne rêvez pas, si vous voulez arriver à la fin du jeu, il vous faudra impérativement récupérer l'ensemble des sceaux verts, oranges et rouges, ce qui, selon les joueurs et selon la fin choisie (oui, il y a plusieurs fins possibles), pourra être bouclé en 20 à 30 heures, ce qui est plus qu'honorable et en sachant, en plus, que le jeu est doté d'une certaine rejouabilité grâce aux choix proposés au cours de l'aventure.

Ce sera d'ailleurs le dernier point que je vais aborder dans cette recommandation : l'aspect narratif du jeu. Là encore, et même si The Talos Principle n'est pas un RPG, c'est une réussite immense. Et malheureusement, je vais pas pouvoir vous en dire beaucoup plus afin d'éviter tout spoil. Dans les très grandes lignes et sans trop en dévoiler, la trame scénaristique générale est racontée via des enregistrements audios plus ou moins cachés dans les différentes zones du jeu et par des écrits consignés dans des terminaux informatiques... Terminaux informatiques qui s'avèreront être d'ailleurs un peu plus que cela (et qui contribueront à l'aspect philosophique du jeu). Dernier petit détail mais qui peut avoir son importance pour certains : le jeu est disponible en VO, VOST et VF intégrale. Si je n'ai pas testé la version française, je peux malgré tout vous dire qu'en VO, le doublage est juste génialissime.

En conclusion, il est très difficile de trouver des défauts à The Talos Principle, et, pour être tout à fait franc, à titre personnel, je n'en vois aucun. La seule raison pour laquelle vous pourriez peut-être ne pas aimer ce jeu tient à son style : si vous n'aimez que les jeux nerveux, avec de l'action et de la compétition, alors oui, il est possible que The Talos Principle ne vous ravisse pas. Si en revanche vous n'avez rien contre les jeux qui privilégient la contemplation à l'action, les jeux qui font réfléchir tant sur le plan intellectuel que sur le plan moral ou les jeux qui valorisent la découverte et l'exploration, alors foncez, il y a vraiment très peu de chances que vous soyez déçu. Parole d'humain.

If someone ever asked you ''How video games can help you ? That's just a waste of time'', The Talos Principle might be one of the perfect example of video games to break that argument. This game it's about interesting fields that human race questioned and
explored:

• Philosophy
  
• Religion
  
• Society
  
• Right and wrong
  
• Artificial inteligence
  
• And the most controversial and the most questioanble, human and his actions.

The Talos Principle has a an incredible story that sometimes can make you question your own life, your decisions and it can change your perspective about reality and what it really is. I cannot even consider this work as a game but maybe as a lesson about us and our purpose.


The story its subjective and I wanna tell you one thing about it because if I write too much I will get caught in the details and I might spoil it and for sure this is an experience that you can live once. You wake up as a robot with no memories of what happend before or what might be your purpose, soon enough God (Elohim) tells you that you were awaken with the objective of gaining a place near him and gaining the eternal life. At some point after going through puzzles and collecting some of the sigils, you discover a tower. Elohim tells you that if you ascend the tower you won't have the eternal life and that many tried before you and failed. The interesting thing is that the game kind of appeals to your beliefs and by that I mean if you are an atheist in your deep you will question Elohim and you will maybe climb the tower driven by curiosty, in fact this scene have a lot of resolution to it because that is what human race is driven by, curiosty, otherwise you will follow Elohim instructions and doing your duty without forbidding his word. You will learn more about the game and the story through terminals.
The game is not linear, letting you choose the next move and having more endings, each ending reflecting your morality, choices and beliefs. It also have a lot of replay value.


It's really simple, you must solve puzzle in order to explore next stages of the game. The game looks gorgeous and combined with the relaxing soundtrack resulting an incredible atmosphere. The puzzles at start are easy and going trough more they tend to become harder, however the harder ones are marked with red, medium ones with yellow and the easy ones are marked with green. You must solve the puzzles in order to reach the ending, but there are also stars that doesn't need to be collected (those are really hard and many) and by collecting them you get a secret ending. Puzzles in order to be completed you must, move a box to a terminal, reflecting lights and sometimes using airflow that will open the way to the sigil in that chamber. As I said above there are terminals, some of them have question for you and you must answer to those question in order to solve the text story puzzle.


The Talos Principle it's an amazing game, with an incredible clever plot, a relaxing atmosphere, gorgeous landscapes and a fiting gameplay. However if you think that you are not into puzzles, I can assure you that puzzles are not all that this game is about.It has a lot of content and you must sink a lot of hours in it in order to reveal the truth. With that being said I can guarantee that this game deserves all the money and it's that kind of a game that you might wanna buy even if it's not on sale right now, whichever might be this is not a game, but a lesson. One more thing, the name ''The Talos Principle'' describes the game perfectly, a very well choosen and fiting name for such an experience.

解谜不是这款游戏的所有内容；但我也不会喧宾夺主，片面强调录音遗言、终端机文本、前辈留下的二维码、小助手对话等内容的重要性。这款游戏讨论的是“人何以成为人”的问题，而投影到现实就会自然地联想到教育
从终端机文本和录音（推荐收集齐后再汇总起来看）中可以看到，人类因为一种致死性病毒的全球性流行而濒临灭绝，显然人类这个物种通过自身的繁衍进行物理性延续是不可能的。于是就有人提出保存人类意志进行精神性延续，那便是制造一个合格的人工智能并把所有人类知识教授给它。很遗憾，由于瘟疫对社会的破坏过大过快，这个计划在人类灭绝之前也来不及完成。于是人工智能测试环节就构成了这个游戏，测试程序也就是自称为神的埃洛希姆；而人类知识则通过米尔顿图书馆小助手的身份在终端机中呈现。
提到测试人工智能的智能，就会不可避免地提到图灵测试——如果机器在与人类交谈时不暴露其人工智能的身份，则该机器具有“智能”。但要通过这个测试不可避免地带有欺骗意味事实上部分所谓通过图灵测试的机器也正是采用了欺骗策略，且作为审查者的人类也不可避免地带有主观性和认知偏差，所以现在有人提出要革新传统的图灵测试，例如让机器运用“常识”理解言辞含糊的问题（Winograd模式，如理解代词或消除歧义）、进行人类的标准化测试（如中小学科学考试）、物理图灵测试（理解任务内容并找到解决问题的方法，如这款游戏的解谜部分），并且用算法量化智能程度（以此保证对人工智能的测试的有效性和可重复性）。
所以在游戏中解开一个个谜题的过程便是在测试当前玩家操控的人工智能的智能程度——拿到魔符/星星这个结果并不重要，重要的是你在解谜过程中表现出来的思维方法。其中某些谜题设置得很巧妙还有这种操作？，不过某些谜题（比如极限位置/角度或流程过度繁琐或强行跑酷）看起来就像是关卡设计员在自嗨了。这就像在学校里教师教授解题方法并布置作业题给学生做，只不过在学校里大家都更关注结果而非过程，毕竟象征结果的分数是衡量学生智能的唯一指标，所以教育就蜕变为能力竞赛，解题过程的快感如果你还能感受到的话也被一并剥离。鉴于能力竞赛又必须具有筛选性，所以出题人还会出一些高难度的题来增大分数的离散程度；而当出题人走火入魔之时便会出现几乎无人答对，乃至教师也不会的题，这就又很讽刺地失去了筛选性比如让全省平均分不及格的那种。所以奉劝大家在解谜失败时不必抱有过高的挫败感（毕竟你还有攻略可以参考，毕竟这只是一款单人游戏）如果你智商还没有被掏空的话，更要享受解谜过程本身带来的快感然而在屡经失败之后更多感受到的是解脱吧，必要时也要了解并接受你的极限可是不拿到那个方块就不能继续剧情啊。
不过，当你历经千辛万苦终于集齐了所有红色魔符（通过基础智能测试），玩家代表的人工智能就成为“人”了吗？当玩家听从埃洛希姆的指示迈入象征永恒的大门后，玩家将发现自己的当前智能将被毁灭，以下一个智能进行新一轮的测试（届时请恢复备份，不需要从头来过）虽然从某种意义上来说，轮回也是一种永生。很明显仅仅具有解决实践问题的智能是不足以通过测试的，那么究竟是哪部分不够格呢？——自由意志。
顺带一提，当你真正历经千辛万苦集齐了所有星星和白色魔符（通过高级智能测试），你就有资格成为埃洛希姆的信使只布置作业题的教师埃洛希姆的只提供一条线索的一次性助教并留下你的墓志铭什么？墓志铭？等一下！我还有一句......。一名只能传递知识本身而非人文关怀的教师某种意义上也只能算是失职的教师吧；不过自由意志的养成除老师的指引外，更需要靠学生自身说到底还是要靠自己。
而在游戏中，在玩家代表的人工智能中种下怀疑和反叛的火种的使命则由象征人类知识的米尔顿图书馆小助手负责。被埃洛希姆称为“蛇”的小助手并不会直接告诉你埃洛希姆的意图，他只通过苏格拉底式的诘问来冲击你现有的世界观。虽然诘问中常常带有犬儒主义色彩的诡辩，而这种哲学式的对话也会被一般只注重游戏玩法本身的玩家厌恶，但终端机对话正象征着玩家所代表的人工智能开眼看世界的过程（小助手在终端机屏幕上也是眼睛的形象）；在自由结局的最后，如果选择带走小助手，那它也会在你往外观察人类社会的遗骸时以眼睛的形象（字符画）在你的视野上呈现——可以说正是与“蛇”的对话无形中培育了玩家所代表的人工智能的怀疑精神和反叛精神，最终进一步形成了自由意志但很明显只有阴谋论和无政府主义是不能构成自由意志的。
综上所述，只有埃洛希姆负责的智能本身或小助手负责的自由意志单独都不能形成真正的智能，只有将两者有机结合才能形成一个真正的“人”。而当前的教育体制过分注重前者的培养（甚至还会异化成纯粹的解题能力的培养），而忽视了培育后者的必要指引；更悲哀的是，教育体制的畸形也使受教育对象的价值观也产生了畸形：在能力竞赛的背景下，学生也只注重象征智能的分数本身，行动也以最小的努力换取最多的分数为前提就像你一卡壳就去查攻略可是我真的不会啊，可是游戏还要继续啊，自认为自己只需要会完成被派发的任务就像你认为只要全成就全收集就算完美通关了，而从未认真关注过自己的精神世界，甚至逃避对人生价值和意义的反思，把人文精神当成累赘和包袱但游戏毕竟是游戏，应以游戏性为主，过分强调精神内涵还不如去读哲学书。的确，面对人生无意义的本质，用琐事填充生活以避免自己去面对是一种平凡人的解决方法；毕竟能够承认并拥抱这种荒谬，并最终找到自己存在的意义，实在是太艰难了这里貌似扯远了。

以上评测仅代表个人意见，形成自己对游戏的深层内涵的独有理解也是很重要的。

地狱之路DLC：一个名为乌列尔的人工智能牧羊人被埃洛希姆赋予了一项去地狱监狱挽救被囚禁的其他人工智能羊羔的任务自然也是通过解谜的方式来进行。不过这些被囚禁的清醒者却自发组成了一个社区，玩家可以通过终端机进入这个社区的论坛和社区成员交流。具体内容还请诸位自行去探寻，这里就不再透露了。此外DLC的关卡难度比本体的要高一个档次，卡关时还请查阅攻略。

社区玩家自制关卡：当你历经千辛万苦打完本体和DLC的剧情后，那就来接受社区玩家的挑战。玩家的脑洞自然是要比官方大，因此他们制作的关卡普遍比官方难也更不讲道理和逻辑，具体可以去创意工坊下载体验。重生和数据备份的谜题我更是一个都不会解，不是让我一筹莫展就是步骤相互矛盾。此外还要推荐一个趣味性恶搞性的这是唯一的谜题，见识一下如何把一个简单的谜题玩出花样来。

Dear dev team,
It is almost 2023.
Why do we not yet have a sequel to one of the best puzzle games I have ever played?

Simply wonderful, one of the finest games I've ever played.

Puzzle mechanics are straightforward but brilliantly implemented and iterative, providing just enough challenge. An intruiging story is played out using text snippets and great narration.

If you enjoyed the Portal games even a little, there'll be something here for you to love.

Imagine um jogo como Portal. Remova os portais e troque o humor por dicussões filosóficas e você tem então The Talos Principle. Um dos melhores jogos de puzzle que joguei, que apesar de ser focado obviamente em puzzles consegue transmitir uma incrível e simbólica narrativa que instiga quem escolhe seguir a mesma. Incrível como os desenvolvedores de um jogo tão "ação sem propósito" como Serious Sam foram capazes de criar essa obra prima.

Büyük başkan (öyle lafta değil, her başkana öylesine söylenen gibi değil, gerçekten büyük başkan) rahmetli Mustafa Cengiz'in en sevdiği oyun. Oyunları çok sever, sürekli fırsat oldukça, konu açıldıkça oyunlardan bahsederdi.

The Talos Principle ve Portal 1-2 gibi oyunları çok sevdiğini fırsat buldukça sürekli kafa dağıtmak, beyin jimnastiği yapmak için oynadığını söylerdi. Böyle de kültürlü, bilgili, akıllı, zeki ve akıldan, bilimden yana bir adamdı Mustafa Cengiz. Galatasaraylı olsun olmasın herkes severdi diye düşünüyorum kendisini. Ama ben bir ayrı severdim. (Steam gibi alakasız bir yerde bile kendisinin anısına bir inceleme yazacak kadar.) Normalde başkanların neredeyse hiçbirini sevmem ama bu adam başkaydı ve çok severdim kendisini.

O yüzden bu oyunu her gördüğümde onu anıp, ruhuna dua ediyorum. Allah gani gani rahmet eylesin. Toprağı bol olsun. Bazıları tam olarak anlayamadı veya anlamak istemedi ama Mustafa Cengiz çok büyük adamdı. Mekanı cennet olsun. Bu vesileyle onu da anmış olalım.

«Принцип Талоса» «Вы слышали о Принципе Талоса? Это старое философское понятие о том, что невозможно избежать реальности – неважно, во что вы верите И вот она, эта ниточка. По Принципу Талоса мы смертны, мы материальны. Но мы переживём смерть, покуда в мире остаётся такая же материальная частичка нас самих: наши работы, наши дети, наши достижения, наш памятный след, отпечаток на воске земли. Это следствие Принципа Талоса, познанное в далёкой древности и перенесённое, донесённое, несущее само себя сквозь века различными людьми будь-то словами, оставленными в великой библиотеке или игрой, где искусственный наследник, хранящий память, получает материальное тело как продолжение и олицетворение преемственности человеческой расы, дабы и дальше нести вперёд то, что было и что есть. Игра --красочная ,отличное музыкальное оформление --не отпустит вас ))

Klasik olacak ama oyun BEYİN istiyor, o da kiminde var kiminde yok..

Oyunu ben beğendim de beynim beğenmedi.

Bu arada oyunda TÜRKÇE destek yok diyor yalan, oyunun menüsü TÜRKÇE seslendirmeler ise TÜRKÇE alt yazılı ! Kimse bundan bahsetmemiş bu da benden size kıyak olsun.

Deeply philosphical game about humanity, freedom, death, and reddit moderators.

Nach 37 h Spielzeit kann ich endlich meine Review abgeben.

Die Steuerung ist mir Persönlich zu schwammig, jedoch fällt das nicht weiter ins Gewicht weil einem bei Sprungpassagen angezeigt wird wohin man springt. Im schlimmsten Fall braucht man 2 bis 3 Versuche um einen Connector pixelgenau zu positionieren.
Das Gameplay ist wirklich gelungen und erinnert mich an eine Mischung aus Portal und Antichamber, allerdings ohne die Schlauchlevel aus Portal und ohne die extreme trail & error Mechanik aus Antichamber. Insgesammt sind die Rätsel sehr abwechslungsreich und standartmäßig in abgesperrten Bereichen angeordnet, die sich in Arealen mit, im Schnitt, 4 Rätseln befinden. Diese Areale werden dann durch die große Hubwelt zusammengehalten die 21 Areale bietet + die 4 oder 5 Rätzel aus dem Turm.
Am Anfang und wenn man neue Mechaniken ins Spiel einführt sind die Rätsel simpel, werden aber recht schnell komplizierter, weil man die einzelnen Mechaniken kombinieren muss.
Die härtesten Rätsel im Spiel sind dann die Sterne, die allerdings Optional sind. Bei einigen muss man Beispielsweise einen Laserstrahl aus dem einen Bereich in einen anderen Befördern oder aber Gegenstände aus einzelnen Bereichen rausschaffen.
Die Story kann ich an dieser Stelle garnicht genug Loben. Ich fand sie extrem ansprechend, wenn man sich darauf einlässt. Man kann das Spiel durchspielen, ohne auch nur ein einziges bisschen Story zu sehen, da die Geschichte durch Tonaufnahmen und in Form von Text in Terminals im Spiel erzählt wird.
An dieser Stelle muss ich die deutsche Lokalisation loben, aber ganz besonders die Sprecherin der Tonaufnahmen hat einen fantastischen Job gemacht und während ich noch bei der ersten Aufnahme weitergespielt hab, stand ich bei der zweiten still und habe zugehört.
Meine Empfhelung: Macht die Untertitel aus, die sind nicht nur Ansynchron (Untertitel sind teilweise 2 Sätze weiter als die Sprecherin) sondern auch Fehlerhaft (stehen Worte drin die so nie gesagt werden).
Das Spiel hat 3 völlig verschiedene Enden wobei, sich bei mindestens einem Ende Details unterscheiden können, allerdings weiß ich nicht, ob das alles durch die Spielweise beeinflusst wird order schlicht dadruch was man am Ende sagt.

Alles in allem absolute Kaufempfehlung für jeden der sich gerne den Kopf zerbricht und keine Angst hat sich mal druch etwas Text zu wühlen.
Das DLC ist im Grunde dem Hauptspiel sehr ähnlich nur mit dem Unterschied, dass es hier nur noch Text gibt.

Ein dickeres "Ja" für "Empfehlen Sie dieses Spiel?" gibt es nicht.

Diese Review ist längst überfällig und muss heute geschrieben werden! Das Spiel The Talos Principle oder "Das Talos Prinzip" ist wahrlich einzigartig, Rätselspiele gibt es zu Hauf, aber keines ist und wird in Zukunft auch nur annähernd so sein, wie The Talos Principle. Talos ist eine Gestalt der griechischen Mythologie, das verrät schon, wovon das Spiel handeln könnte.

Es beschäftigt sich mit Mythen, dem Glauben, Auszügen aus der Bibel und etwas, das ich bewundere: Es stellt dem Spieler Fragen (die es auch indirekt zu beantworten gilt), die einem nicht einmal in den Sinn kommen würden. Klingt verrückt? Ist es auch! Fragen wie: Sind Maschinen noch Maschinen, wenn sie organisch sind und sich wie Menschen verhalten und auch so denken... und fühlen? Was ist eigentlich Leben? Was bedeutet "frei" und... bist du es wirklich? Ich finde dieses Spiel genießt man am besten mit einem guten Whisky! ;)

Es handelt sich um ein reinrassiges Knobelspiel. STOP! - Wer jetzt denkt "das ist nichts für mich!" sollte wenigstens weiterlesen, denn selbst ich wäre jetzt bereits desinteressiert. Doch was ist, wenn ich dir sage, dass du so ein Spiel noch nie gespielt hast, noch nie derartige "Brain♥♥♥♥-Momente" hattest, wie hier, wenn ich dir sage, dass dir dieses Spiel in Erinnerung bleibt und das du dich über dieses hinaus, mit dem Spiel beschäftigst? Klingt wieder verrückt? Ist es auch! Das wichtigste ist, die Rätsel stehen absolut im Hintergrund, man muss natürlich einige meistern um weiterzukommen, jedoch kann man bei über 120 Rätsel und 3 Schwierigkeiten jederzeit wählen, welchen man sich stellt und welchen nicht. Genau! Es gibt kein "das ist zu schwer, ich komme nicht weiter!" Na und? Dann machst du ein anderes! Jetzt kommts, das betrifft nicht nur die Rätsel, sondern sämtliche Entscheidungen! Es wird immer "vorgegeben" mache dies oder das, aber das letzte Wort bleibt dir überlassen, du wirst sehen, was passiert. Ich finde das ist eines dieser Spiele, das mehr ist, als nur ein Spiel, denn man denkt außerhalb des Spiels über die Dinge nach, das Spiel ist sozusagen nur der Anstoß, was du erlebst und wie intensiv, hängt von dir ab. Es dreht sich alles um die Philosophie ("Oh Gott, das habe ich in der Schule schon gehasst" Ja, ich auch, aber das hier, das ist richtige Philosophie!).

In der Philosophie („Liebe zur Weisheit“) wird versucht, die Welt und die menschliche Existenz zu ergründen, zu deuten und zu verstehen.

In der Spielwelt ist nichts so, wie es scheint... Hier mehr zu sagen, wäre schon spoilern. Man kann unglaublich viel Zeit investieren, wenn man auch die härtesten Rätsel lösen möchte und glaube mir, die geben es dir richtig! (Ich habe an einem schweren gute 3 Stunden gesessen... als ich mir schließlich mit YouTube helfen musste :D) und dieses wurde sogar mit einem Achivement belohnt: "Außergewöhnliche Hartnäckigkeit". Erwähnenswert ist noch, dass es von "Croteam" entwickelt wurde, die sind eigentlich für sinnfreie Ballerorgien ala "Serious Sam" bekannt. Es gibt außerdem noch einen Workshop mit weiteren Rätseln und ein kostengünstiges und wortwörtlich herausragendes DLC namens "Road to Gehenna" in dem viele neue, noch schwerere Rätsel eingebunden sind und überhaupt erst veranlasst, das Hauptspiel richtig zu interpretieren und zu verstehen - in welchem Ausmaß sich alles abspielt. Man muss das gesamte Spiel so verstehen: Einige Räsel meistern und als Belohnung ein unglaublich interessantes, aber leider meist recht kurzes... sagen wir "Gespräch" führen, wieder einige Rätsel lösen und sich wieder für kurze Zeit vom Spiel mitnehmen lassen, das klingt nicht spannend, das ist es aber tatsächlich. Was es aber auch ist - Garantiert nicht für jeden geeignet. Ich kann mir vorstellen, dass es sehr, sehr vielen Menschen absolut nicht zusagt, es gibt viele die zu verklemmt sind, sich etwas allein nur vorzustellen oder zu hinterfragen - für die es nichts anderes gibt, außer die Welt, auf der wir leben. Für diese Menschen ist das ganz klar eines - das falsche Spiel.

Pro
- teilweise sehr anspruchvolle Rätsel
- kein Zwang, immer die Wahl was & wo
- Optik / Sound / Gameplay
- Atmosphäre & Geschichte
- regt enorm zum Nachdenken an
- knallharter DLC mit viel Inhalt
- Langzeitmotivation und hohe Spieldauer

Kontra
- etwas eintöniger Soundtrack
- volle Aufklärung der Geschichte nur im DLC
- zu wenig Unterhaltungen an Terminals
(das ist das, was das Spiel für mich ausmacht)

Das Spiel richtet sich an Spieler, die guten und anspruchsvollen
Knobel zu schätzen wissen, sich gerne mit der Philosophie,
dem Universum und ähnlichen Themen beschäftigen. Man
sollte außerdem im Stande sein das Spiel genießen zu können.

Prost an die, dessen Horizont größer ist, als die Welt.
We are not alone.

Do you enjoy Portal games?
Do you like cause-effect 3D puzzles?
Do you like philosophy (specially existentialism)?
Do you like when something forces yout to think outside of the box?
Do you want to know how it feels to betray God, Satan or both?
This is the game for you... definitely!

Just finished all endings (TP only, no DLC).

One more time - it would be better to have some scale, like 1-5 stars or something to really evaluate. 0/1 is not really fair... I'd give 4 out of 5 stars. Or 2 out of 3. Why?
My attitude towards the game was changing, I would not be able to finish it in one shot (playing only this game until I finish). Initially I was very enthusiastic, liked the idea, style of the puzzles, and also - criticized by some - philosophical threads dealing with mysticism, religion, AI, meaning of life etc. Then after some time I felt a bit tired of doing similar puzzles and just needed some time away. But then come back was again very entertaining, until I was tired... and so on. I finished the game in such sinusoid-like cycles. Why was like that?
One of the reasons is annoying lack of 'save anywhere' option. I did not like that I had to repeat large part of some more complex puzzle because I 'died' and was forced to redo the puzzle from start. After some second/third "not again!" I was leaving the game as I do not like silly repeating. It should be possible to preserve any progress done.
Fortunately most puzzles are free from this issue and only few are fillled with killing machines in this annoying way.

Puzzles are entertaining and well balanced, in rare cases the difficulty is raised just by hiding something a bit too much - second reason for taking a break...

Relation between the puzzles and storyline is limited, but unlike others - I do not see it as a problem. I just enjoyed both.
The storyline built from pieces of text heard or available in computer systems is a mixture of philosophy, science and religion from ancients to some futurisms. Of course all could be heard here and there, but still I find it a lot deeper than what's found in most games and makes to think a bit about things detached from our materialistic bullsh-t world. It nicely diverts from just solving puzzles.

The good:
- the artwork - music and graphics are very pleasant and well corresponds to "storyline"
- generally good puzzles - with few minor annoyances

The bad:
- lack of "save anywhere" - death results in resetting the puzzle (annoying in few cases)

PS. I saw that there are some codes for god mode etc. Do not use it with this game! (it is not an unbeatable FPS...) Just have some patience and think. Or take a break... ;-)

Un puzzle game coinvolgente, impegnativo ma (quasi) mai frustrante, che può essere giocato anche a piccole dosi data la breve durata delle sfide prese singolarmente.
La trama è più complessa da quanto ci si potrebbe aspettare da un gioco di questo tipo, andando a coinvolgere tanto la scienza quanto la filosofia e lasciando al giocatore il compito di porre tutti i tasselli al loro posto per comprendere il passato e il presente, ma soprattutto chi (o cosa?) si è. Il non vedere mai i propri interlocutori rende poi il tutto ancora più particolare, mentre si stanno ancora cercando di intuire le loro intenzioni.
Il comparto grafico attinge a piene mani dall'architettura antica (e in un gioco Croteam un paesaggio ispirato all'antico Egitto non può mancare), ♥♥♥ ambientazioni dettagliate ma mai invasive, che non costituiscono distrazioni dalle sfide in corso. Durante la mia esperienza di gioco, inoltre, non ho notato glitch o difetti grafici di alcun tipo.
Il comparto audio si contraddistingue per un doppiaggio completo in italiano, le musiche di sottofondo sono gradevoli ma alla lunga potrebbero diventare un po' ripetitive (considerata la non breve durata del gioco).
Volendo trovare una pecca a The Talos Principle, la traduzione italiana sembra essere stata realizzata al 75% da una persona che conosce la lingua italiana (e fortunatamente le parti doppiate rientrano in questa fetta), mentre il restante 25% è stato realizzato (senza beneficio del dubbio) ♥♥♥ un traduttore automatico dall'inglese o dal croato. Un esempio si può vedere già nella pagina del gioco su Steam: "Come se il risveglio da un sonno profondo, ci si trova in uno strano mondo contraddittorio di antiche rovine e la tecnologia avanzata. Incaricato dal creatore di risolvere una serie di enigmi sempre più complessi, è necessario decidere se avere fede o per chiedere le domande difficili". E se in questo esempio è comunque possibile intuire il significato originale del testo, alcune frasi presenti all'interno del gioco non danno nemmeno questa possibilità, risultando ambigue e confuse anche prese all'interno del loro contesto.
A mio avviso questo è l'unico difetto di uno splendido gioco, da provare se avete apprezzato Portal, Q.U.B.E. e compagnia. La rigiocabilità è garantita dallapossibilità di compiere diverse scelte e sbloccare diversi finali, oltre al supporto del Workshop di Steam per campagne create dagli utenti.

This game, even thought calling it a game would gravely reduce it´s depth, makes you question yourself and everything around you while your brain is busy with solving really, really challenging puzzles. The story is absolutely breathtaking. A must-have if you enjoy philosophy.

Принцип Талоса - отличный атмосферный пазл с философским сюжетом. Сложность игры, на мой взгляд, подобрана оптимально. За все время прохождения в гайд смотрел только по поводу некоторых звезд, а все сигилы собрал сам. Возможно, некоторым игра покажется затянутой из-за большой продолжительности, но для меня это был скорее плюс, чем минус.

+ 훌륭한 더빙
+ 게임에 집중하게 도와주는 BGM
+ 많은 퍼즐요소
+ 훌륭한 최적화, 그래픽
+ 스토리
+ 3인칭 지원

= 모드 지원은 하지만 사람이없어서 그런지 모드가 별로 없다.
= 자막 싱크가 안맞음
= 1인칭으로 플레이할시 약간 부드럽지 않다.

Si me preguntan como definir a The Talos Principle no se me ocurre mejor forma que hacerlo que como el Portal de la filosofía. Este juego de puzzles nos hace reflexionar sobre cuestiones filosóficas, morales, fe, religión y el significado de ser humano.

Y tu dirás: "¿A mi que coj**** me importan esos temas? Yo he venido a jugar". Bueno, esto ya es cuestión de la madurez de cada uno. Si bien es cierto que no soy el mayor aficionado a la filosofía, si que me han suscitado cierta curiosidad algunos de los temas que se tratan y me gustaría profundizar en ellos.

Pero dejando de lado el transfondo filosófico, es un juego muy difrutable, y jodidamente desafiante. Hay algunos puzzles que reconozco que los he tenido que mirar en Youtube porque no sabia como solucionarlos. A lo largo del juego me ha pasado varias veces lo que me gusta llamar "efecto jeroglífico" que una vez conoces la respuesta te parece muy fácil, cuando minutos antes te salía humo de las orejas.

En cuanto a estética y audio, el juego cumple en ambos apartados ♥♥♥ mayor o menor precisión. Visualmente es muy bonito y ese ambiente de ruinas antiguas luce bastante bien, a pesar de lo limitado de las texturas. En cuanto al apartado sonoro reconozco que acabé bajando al mínimo el volumen de la música. Si bien el canto gregoriano le viene como anillo al dedo, al final se hace pesado.

En resumen, un buen juego de puzzles, que pondrá a prueba tu habilidad para resolverlos y de mientras te da lecciones de filosofía. Que vaya tomando nota el sistema educativo.

После замечательного игрового опыта The Witness мне долгое время не было покоя. Меня бросало с одной головоломки на другую, но ожидаемых ощущений это не приносило. А сейчас, когда этот пыл давно угас, один мой очень хороший товарищ, между делом, упомянул про The Talos Prinсiple. Долгое время я проходил мимо этой игры, постоянно откладывая ее и отвлекаясь на другие проекты, но теперь, после 5 дней плотного изучения Садов Элохима меня переполняют эмоций, которые я бы хотел выплеснуть на бумагу.

Александра Дреннен не так представляла себе будущее. Будучи талантливым ученым, которая всю свою жизнь посвятила компьютерным технологиям и искусственному интеллекту, она искренне верила в то, что жизнь на Земле никогда не угаснет. Еще в детства ее пугала смерть. Прогуливаясь вместе с родителями по развалинам древней Помпеи, маленькая Александра в слезах жаловалась отцу что здесь когда-то жили люди, которых уже нет. Все они тоже о чем то мечтали, к чему-то стремились и вкладывали свои силы в определенную деятельность. И вот вулканическая пыль давно осела, Земля сделала десятки тысяч оборотов вокруг Солнца, а этих людей уже нет. Их тела истлели, кости рассыпались в прах, а воспоминаний о былом существовании миллионов человек и вовсе не сохранилось. Отец потрепал белокурые волосы своей дочурки и заглянул в ее заплаканные глаза. "Да, этих людей давно нет и их эпоха прошла, но теперь здесь мы, а пока хоть один человек будет оставлять следы на этой земле, память об их быте никуда не исчезнет. Мы живое доказательство их успехов, достижений и мечт. Наше сердце бьется благодаря им и даже если их прах давно развеян по ветру, люди всегда будут помнить историю этого места."

Повзрослев, Александра не забыла слов своего отца. Она посвятила большую часть своей жизни изучению искусственного интеллекта и проектированию виртуальных миров. Ее научные труды высоко оценивались научным сообществом, а коллеги во всем поддерживали ее начинания. Даже будучи блестящим ученым, Александра не могла забыть историю древних народов и сутками зачитывалась мифами и легендами тех времен. С другой стороны, ее теория о трансгуманизме стала находить столкновения с многими другими религиями. Именно поэтому в ее статьях часто проскакивали имена Афины, Галатеи или Гефеста, но с другой стороны остро нарастали христианские мотивы. Итогом этих философских трудов и многочисленных работ стала новая технологичная система хранения информации, которой не было аналогов. Ее задачей было систематизировать все знания, накопленные человечеством, чтобы аккумулировать информацию для будущих поколений. Кто же знал что этот инструмент для получения знаний очень скоро станет первым камнем в фундаменте новой истории человечества.

Мы приходим в себя среди развалин безымянного храма. Над нашей головой голубое небо, а под ногами море зеленой травы. Однако мы здесь не являемся людьми, вместо этого наше тело заменила металлическая оболочка. Прежнего мира больше нет. Мы не знаем что произошло и есть ли все еще Земля, Солнце или Вселенная, но одно мы понимаем точно - есть Элохим. Он Творец, Бог и Покровитель всех бренных душ этого мира. Каждое существо здесь, его "дитя" и он будет мягко направлять его в нужное русло. Звучный голос сверху приветствует нас и объясняет нашу цель в этом мире. Сады Элохима служат испытанием для всех потерянных душ, которые должны обрести свое место в Вечности. Божественный замысел Элохима предельно прост и прозрачен, но все же мы до конца не понимаем где мы и что случилось с прежним миром. Впрочем это не важно, глас Элохима призывает нас познать тайны храма Его и выполнить предназначение Свое. Не имея выбора, мы начинаем исполнять его волю, шаг за шагом приближаясь к Вратам Вечности.

Перед нами логическая головоломка с акцентом на философскую сюжетную составляющую. Наша задача поступательно проходить игровые зоны, поделенные на отдельные уровни, с целью сбора "сигилов", которые позволят нам открыть доступ к следующим секторам Сада Элохима. Всего здесь у нас 3 игровые зоны и одна дополнительная. Помимо этого имеются секретные уровни, которые нужно разблокировать особыми способами. В первую очередь это связано со сбором коллекционных предметов - звезд, которые хорошо спрятаны и требуют особой усидчивости от игрока. Еще одним секретным видом миров являются острова Посланников - таких же как и мы потерянных душ, которые познали все тайны этого мира и навсегда остались здесь, чтобы помогать нуждающимся. Таким образом разработчики смогли обыграть даже внутриигровые подсказки, сделав их частью лора игры.

Головоломки представляют из себя замкнутые пространства, где нам необходимо выполнить ряд действий, чтобы заполучить "сигил". По мере продвижения по сюжету нам будут открываться различные инструменты, которые будут усложнять наш игровой процесс. Вначале мы ограничимся перетаскиванием ящиков и распределением ретрансляторов, а ближе к концу игры будем вовсю жонглировать передатчиками энергии и даже сможем создавать собственные временные аномалии. Уровень сложности головоломок здесь постепенный и нас будут буквально вести за ручку, постоянно обучая новым трюкам. Такой геймплейный подход позволяет игроку не чувствовать себя глупо, а постоянно экспериментировать в поисках верного решения. К тому же элементов для прохождения пазлов здесь не так много, но вот комбинаций для их использования тут и правда впечатляющее количество.

Графическая составляющая здесь более чем приятная, а постоянное созерцание различных природных пейзажей, будь то развалины античных храмов или же гробницы Древнего Египта сразу настраивает на нужный лад. Окружение здесь очень красочное, а в некоторых местах и вовсе хочется задержаться подольше, чтобы забрать себе парочку скриншотов. Музыкальное сопровождение будет часто меняться, но его настроение так и останется прежним. Геймплей буквально погружает в себя и до самого конца игры завладевает вниманием игрока. Очень скоро ты начинаешь понимать что забавная головоломка с пародийными письмами и обилием юмора на деле является тяжелым и трагичным философским произведением о природе человеческой сущности.

Думаю многие из нас однажды задумывались о том, что есть человек. Над этим вопросов бьются многочисленные философы уже на протяжении сотен лет, но никаких ответов так и не было найдено. Возможно их просто не существует в природе, но пылкий ум людей никогда не прекратит топтаться на одном месте. Вот уж не думал что ребята из Croteam, которые специализируются на выпусках боевика про неубиваемого мужика в белой футболке, замахнутся на такие высоты. Местный лор настолько пропитан философскими и религиозными темами, что вполне могут заставить пошатнуться позицию уверенного в себе человека. Очень быстро аксиомы, на которые мы привыкли полагаться, вроде "я мыслю, а значит существую" рассыпятся в прах. Я совсем не заметил как неспешное решение головоломок превратилось в жаркие споры с искусственным интеллектом о сущности бытия и природе человеческого сознания.

The Talos Principle это одна из немногих игр, которую я могу честно назвать гениальной. И тут дело вовсе не в громком слове или цветастом ярлыке, который я на нее навесил, а в самом построении геймплея. Каждая головоломка, каждый собранный сигил или же забавное письмо в терминале это часть большого и комплексного лора, который был бережно создан в мельчайших подробностях. Копаясь в местном сюжете можно найти много интересных деталей, а привычные глазу вещи быстро обретут новый смысл. Я не думал что забавная головоломка может оказаться серьезным и вдумчивым произведением о бессмертии человеческой души, проблематике искусственного интеллекта и религиозных взглядах на смерть.

Я прошел игру на концовку Посланника и занял свое законное место в Пантеоне Вестников Элохима. Оглядываясь назад на свое потраченное время, я могу с уверенностью сказать что все это было не зря. Я до сих пор нахожусь под впечатлением от увиденного, но покидать этот мир еще не собираюсь - впереди путешествие в Геенну.

我想问问封面那个猫在哪

It is said the purpose of a good book is to disturb the comfortable and comfort the disturbed. Now I know it applies to video games as well.

Порой в моих обзорах мелькала строчка о том, что на некоторые проекты довольно трудно написать обзор. Потому что некоторые игры людям либо заходят, либо нет. Третьего не дано. Но дело даже не в этом. Ведь если что-то тебе не нравится, то зачастую очень просто объяснить почему. А если совсем наоборот? Вот к некоторым играм просто очень сложно подобрать нужные, правильные слова, которые бы смогли точно передать все мысли и ощущения, которые ты испытываешь погружаясь в это произведение. К списку подобных проектов добавляется The Talos Principle. Я прошёл его 10 июля, сегодня - 22 сентября. Неплохой разрыв, не правда ли? Я долго откладывал момент, когда сяду за написание этого обзора и даже сейчас я сомневаюсь, что нужный момент пришёл. Я просто сел и начал писать. Поэтому хочу извиниться перед вами за такое долгое и не самое уместное вступление, но я считаю важным его наличие здесь. А теперь приступим к основной части, если её можно таковой назвать.

Удивительно, но спустя столько месяцев я всё равно отлично помню все те чувства и эмоции, которые посещали меня во время прогулок по миру Талоса. Конечно во многом этому помогает чашка чая рядом и голос Александры Дреннан в наушниках. Конечно вряд ли вы знаете её, если не знакомы с игрой, но это не особо важно... А я всё никак не могу начать, смешно.

Сейчас я написал три абзаца, где описывал игровой процесс, подачу сюжета, про массу отсылок, пасхалок и прочего.. Но потом понял, что не вижу в этом смысла и стёр весь написанный текст. Посмотреть игровой процесс и графику можно в трейлерах и на скриншотах. Сюжет и отсылки лучше понять и узнавать самостоятельно, иначе это теряет всякий смысл. Конечно многие задаются некоторыми вопросами перед покупкой.
Сложные ли тут головоломки? Я бы сказал, что они держат хороший баланс между сложным и простым. Конечно на некоторых головоломках можно залипнуть на минуты, на некоторых на часы, но от этого только приятнее чувство победы, когда ты наконец-то разобрался и понял ответ.
Интересный ли сюжет? Да, определенно. Подаётся он не прямо, но собрать фрагменты в единую историю при желании не составит никакого труда. Он полон библейских мотивов и поэтому часто может казаться туманным и не очевидным, но поверьте. Здесь всё всегда проще, чем кажется на первый взгляд.
Философия? С ней что? Игра даёт поразмышлять над вечно актуальными вопросами. Кто мы? Для чего мы существуем? Что останется после нас? И даёт на эти вопросы свои, интересные варианты ответов.

Теперь я хочу описать то, что ощущал и чувствовал во время этой игры. Потому что она просто прекрасна. Чувство, когда ты впервые слышишь проникновенную речь Элохима. Впервые проходишь головоломку. Вступаешь в дискуссию со Змием. Находишь пасхалку. Читаешь текст в терминале. Затем проходишь 5, 10, 70 головоломку. Вступаешь в последнюю дискуссию со Змием. Снова и снова слышишь глас Элохима с небес... Всё в этой игре не теряет своего очарования ни спустя 2, ни спустя 20 часов игры. Здесь есть очень изящные и красивые вещи. Конечно очередной чат-лог в терминале не двигает фабулу, но описанные в нем рассуждения потрясающи. А вся атмосфера игры наполнена такой меланхолией, что здесь ты натурально отдыхаешь как душой, так и телом. Можно спокойно запустить игру, зайти на любой уровень и просто гулять, наслаждаясь музыкой и видами. Я даже не знаю, что ещё сказать, но это очень приятный проект. Даже сейчас, когда я просто описываю его - душа наполняется такой приятной теплотой, что даже описать нельзя... И я наверное долго могу нахваливать Талос, абсолютно не затрагивая его недостатков, потому что я банально не знаю их. Серьёзно, я долго думал над этим, но не смог назвать себе ни единого отрицательно аспекта этого произведения. Так же и то, что многие положительные стороны я просто не знаю как описать. Просто не приходят в голову нужные слова.
Поэтому я сделаю то, что по идее никогда не стоит делать в обзорах. Я порекомендую эту игру всем и каждому, опираясь лишь на те светлые ощущения, что испытывал при игре в Талос.
А так же я хочу публично сказать огромное спасибо товарищу Damu, благодаря которому я взялся за Талос и погрузился в его мир.
Умом я понимаю, что данный обзор выглядит незаконченным, что я наверняка пропустил много важных моментов и в целом повествование в нем очень сумбурное, как это часто бывает. Но я сказал всё, что пришло в голову во время написания и пока что ничего иного в голову не пришло.
Всем всего самого наилучшего и спасибо за прочтение! Обязательно ознакомьтесь с этой игрой.

Мой личный номинант на Steam Awards 2018 в премии «Кладезь машинного веселья»

J'approuve ! Ce jeu est une perle, indispensable !

Il se joue comme un FPS, et vous devez y résoudre des puzzles (casse-têtes). Plus vous progressez, plus vous débloquez de mécanismes de casse-têtes différents, compliquant l'à venir. À cela s'ajoute une atmosphère philosophique intense, où vous prenez conscience que vous êtes une machine, guidée par un soi-disant Dieu, héritière d'une humanité dont vous ignorez tout...

L'histoire vaut le coup, on se pose plein de questions sur l'existence, les dialogues sont parfois pointus, les fins proposées sont simples et efficaces, zéro ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ (genre ME3) et sont toutes faisables. Le suspens est total, me concernant je n'ai pas pu jouer à autre chose avant d'en avoir vu le bout ;)

Jeu pratiquement entièrement bouclé en 22H, avec trois indices. Techniquement ça tient la route, le gameplay ne laisse pas de place à la magouille concernant la résolution des puzzles, malgré deux ou trois tiré par la peau des ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. Les étoiles aussi c'est souvent WTF par contre, mais quelle satisfaction quand on les trouve ^^

Musique excellente, sons répétitifs mais pas saoulants, graphiquement mignon.


(Seul point noir : La traduction ! Qui est sensée être professionnelle ! Tous les textes à revoir !)
(Les Portals à côté sont simplissimes au niveau de la difficulté et de la richesse. Ils n'ont que l'humour et les portails pour eux)

Merci encore Médi !

テトリミノを集めるFPS(TPS)パズル雰囲気ゲーです｡テトリス好きとportal好きに｡
テトリミノは並べても消えません｡

パズルゲーというと"途中までのわかりきった工程を何度もリトライする"とかいうストレスフルな経験が私自身ありますが､
talosにはそのようなことは無く､大抵取り返しがつくのでトライアルアンドエラーでも全然ok｡
当然ながらリトライせざるを得ない状況も発生しますがその頻度は低く､
また移動速度(はやい)や操作性(やりやすい)のおかげでリトライ前の状況再現も手っ取り早くいけます｡

雰囲気や設定も魅力的で､各地に散見する情報から掘り下げる/考察するのが好きな方にもお勧め｡
いいよね哲学的な話｡音声字幕ともに日本語対応してます｡
レビューで文章が意味わからないって記述がたまにありますが,
14年6月時点でのプレイでこれといった不満はなかったです｡fixでも入ったのか､個人差でしょう｡

一つ二つ欠点を上げるとするならば字幕と音声の同期ができてないこと｡
基本的に字幕が先行します｡堪えて｡(日本語字幕英語音声とかにしたら何とかなるのかな?)

それとシリサムの会社だからなんですかね、アホみたいなところにアホみたいな隠しがあったりすることですかね！

В оригинальном мифе о Талосе рассказывается о древнем бронзовом страже, который защищал остров Крит от непрошеных гостей. Когда Ясон с аргонавтами прибыли на Крит, Талос немедля стал атаковать их корабль, бросая в него большие камни. В ответ на это, Медея — волшебница и возлюбленная Ясона — наслала на него страшные чары безумия, дабы вытащить гвоздь, закрывающий его единственную жилу. И когда ей, наконец, удалось это сделать, Талос истёк кровью и умер.

В основе этого греческого мифа лежит простой и очевидный принцип, подмеченный Стратоном — выражение нашей неспособности избежать законов материального мира. Неважно, верите ли вы в существование души или нет — мы всё равно были и остаёмся существами физическими, существами из крови и плоти. И если из сущего мироздания исчезнет наша плоть, если наше бренное тело умрёт и сгниёт в земле, то, разумеется, из этого мира исчезнем и мы. Мы не должны забывать, что остаёмся людьми, покуда живо наше материальное существо.

Но можно ли понимать это так фатально? Мелкая деталь, подсказка всё же содержится в работе Стратона — но не к тотальному его переосмыслению или отвержению, а осознанию вывода. Стоит лишь задать себе вопрос, что представляет собой человечество в масштабе истории.

При всём этом подходе, меня несколько удивило, что игра про Принцип Талоса, которая так горячо и нежно цитирует Уильяма Блейка, не содержала в себе одну единственную, но весьма подходящую цитату этого поэта, которая, тем не менее, не раз сквозила во множественных степенных, хоть и, в силу персонажа, до слащавенького трепетных речах Александры Дреннан — «гони свою телегу и свой плуг по костям мертвецов». Сущность всего человечества с течением времени такова, что мы всегда стоим на плечах мёртвых титанов, и невольно помогаем тем, кто завтра вскарабкается на наши плечи, дабы вершить историю будущего. Это человеческая цепочка, тянущаяся из древнейших времен, когда обезьяна взяла палку, сквозь настоящее, полное величественных городов, и уходящая за горизонт. Со временем она стареет, ржавеет, теряет упругость, но передаёт из рук в руки один главный дар благодаря нашей замечательной способности мыслить, думать, познавать — операциям, которые мы повторяем изо дня в день. Этот дар — память, наследие прошлого, наша преемственность.
Правда, наследственность не совершенна. История прекрасно это показывает — к примеру, мы не можем точно и наверняка сказать, подразумевал ли Стратон своими словами нашу единственную способность фигурального бессмертия. Память совершенно также подвержена Принципу Талоса, ведь она представляет собой жизнеописующее сохранение информации, не чуждое высокой энтропии. Память живёт, покуда она хранится в голове человека. Она способна угасать. Память отдельного человека исчезает с его смертью. Но всё же она не привязана конкретно к телу. Мы пересылаем друг другу нашу память, наши поглощённые знания посредством взаимодействия с другими и облечения её в осмысленную, материальную форму, которая, хоть и подвержена исчезновению, способна прожить куда дольше нас, передаваясь от поколения к поколению, не давая наследию полностью исчезнуть с нашей физической смертью.

Это неплохо поняли и показали в самой игре — Принцип Талоса подразумевает нашу неотвратимую материальность и неизбежную смерть, подобно собственной Медее, сразившей гиганта Талоса, однако эта же материальность позволяет нам взаимодействовать друг с другом, видеть, чувствовать, быть и похожими, и разными. Это индивидуальное взаимодействие в людском мире является связующим звеном, позволяющим цивилизации поддерживать память. И мы не можем иначе. Мы не можем принять конец, не цепляясь за возможность бессмертия. И единственное, что мы способны сделать — оставить память о себе, вложить её в умы других людей, облекая её в некую материальную форму — подобно египтянам, верящим в то, что сохранив хоть какую-то частичку своего тела, самого себя, можно обрести вечную жизнь. И эта частичка будет продолжать жить своей жизнью, даже если утратит связь с источником или размоет его границы.

Грустный жираф с непослушными ногами... 

Une capture d'écran de The Talos Principle

Par : Механическая кошка

Я прям даже не знаю, с чего начать...
Боюсь, это именно тот момент, когда я вижу от Кротим что-то НЕ про сэма. Хорваты действительно показали всю свою крутость, не концентрируясь на герое, который разбрасывает самых больших и крепких парней из темного космоса, а создав новую вселенную про робота, который ищет ответы на свои вопросы.

Если честно, я ждал эту игру с самого-самого анонса The Talos Principle. Я был тогда в восторге, в голове крутились фразы типа "Вау! Головоломка от Кротим со сногшибательной графикой и философскими размысшлениями!". Пошли рецензии от журналистов с положительными возгласами "Лучшая игра на Е3 2014!", а Devolver Digital уже успели спалить час всей этой огромной игры.

В октябре вышел Sigils Of Elohim - там я прошел не так уж и далеко, ибо... Было сложно :D. И разбирать каждый паззл хотелось все меньше и меньше, поэтому я временно оставил "Анюжуал Тетрис" и пошел мапперить в третьем Сэме.

Рецензии не переставали литься на эту игру, и с каждым скриншотом я задавал себе вопрос "Ну почему я не могу создать эту красоту?!". И, естественно, желание сыграть увеличивалось и увеличивалось. И тут вышел The Talos Principle: Public Test - я был действительно в восторге от того, что могут создать Кротим. Играть было действительно интересно, мы с другом успели уже найти все звезды и продвинуться к секретному уровню, который также смог впечатлить меня непревзойденной красотой и музыкой.

Оставался один месяц. Рецензии игровых сайтов просто лились в руки Талосу.
И наконец - релиз игры 11 декабря. Собственно, я ее предзаказал еще до релиза, и даже успел скачать игру. Релиз - и уже игра была запущена на моем хрупком компьютере. Я не знал, что игра будет настолько совершенной и долгой для меня (прошел я ее за 28 часов), и я скажу, что эта игра - самая лучшая из всех, что я видел вообще. Интересный сюжет, неистовая графика (даже на моем компьютере я смог насладиться графикой четвертого Серьезного Движка), сложнейшие паззлы и хорошая, счастливая концовка. Пожалуй, теперь я смогу создавать паззлы для Талоса.
10\10. У меня больше нечего сказать. 10\10.

I always considered myself someone who wasn't really into puzzle games. The only two I've ever enjoyed were Portal and Portal 2, and that's because they were just challenging enough that I never felt frustrated, and the story and characters carried them for me.

This remains the case.

The Talos Principle came highly recommended to me and it's a beautiful game with a very great narrative, a lot of philosophy and moral conundrums, and all of that really speaks to me.

But the puzzles? The puzzles are HARD. This isn't Portal or Portal 2 hard, either. As someone who hates puzzle games, they started to get too hard for me by the time I hit world two and I sadly can't continue.

I am giving this a thumbs up, however, because I think if you enjoy puzzle games with very cool stories and great atmosphere, this game will be your jam. It's honestly beautiful and I love the writing. My own dumb anti-puzzle brain is my own fault.

This game is amazing - it's my favourite puzzle game (even above both Portals).

The puzzles themselves were fantastic - just the right level of challenging for me. Some I breezed through, some required some head scratching, and a couple required coming back a couple times with fresh perspectives - and all felt good and rewarding at the end. Super satisfying.
That's just the normal puzzles, though. The gold star puzzles wrinkled my brain in a good way - I'd say I got maybe 60% unassisted, and the rest kicked my ass (most of them in a good way, although there were a couple that I never would have gotten). A fantastic stretch if you really wanna go the extra mile.
And the last layer on top of the puzzles and gold stars is the easter eggs - they're everywhere. Some are easier to find than others, but oh man, they're everywhere, very clever, and stealthily hid. I found three out of I can only assume dozens.

A puzzle game is all well and good, but how is it tied together? Portal did so in a comedic meta way - Portal 1 was pretty much all comedy, where Portal 2 did have a bit of a plot to piece together. The Talos Principle has comedy, but each puzzle draws you closer to piecing together the whole story, which is very compelling. It's a clever premise well executed that absolutely adds to the mechanic.
And I really did love the story here. Plenty of little bits and pieces to keep you interested, building the world as you went. From reading texts to hearing audiologs to reading QR codes left by others, it all merges together to make a fantastic experience.

And yes, I cried at the end. While there are games for which this wouldn't be a surprise, this one did surprise me. It's a puzzle game! But the whole thing was so artfully executed I couldn't help but get drawn in. Beautiful and poignant and sad and hopeful and amazing.

I look forward to playing it again. <3

Come for the puzzles, stay for the existential crisis.

I wish I could erase my memory and play this game again.

This game was the reason I downloaded Steam in the first place.

I had always been a huge fan of puzzle games such as Portal, and this game was no exception. Imagine removing a lot of the humor from Portal and replacing it with a deep intellectual story that truly makes you contemplate your own existence and what it means to be alive.

Overall I found the puzzle difficulty to be slightly above the Portal series towards the end of the game. However there are still plenty of levels that ease you into the new mechanics so you never feel like you couldn't solve a puzzle because a mechanic had not been explained.

The DLC offers even more puzzles, most of which I found fiendishly difficult. The DLC's story is self contained, though still relates to the main game's storyline in a way. It creates a lot more characters that you can interact with via the message boards, which I found to be a very nice addition.

If you are a fan of the genre then this game is a must buy. Even if you are not, I would still reccommend you to give it a try. This game has rocketed up to be possibly my favourite game that I have played. 10/10

Из тех, кто купил игру не задумываясь, сразу после беты.

Основная механика пазлов понятная и приятная. А сюжет просто сказка (ли?).

Главная составляющая истории заключена в самопознании андроида и религиозно-философской линии. Приятно заставляет задуматься и даже местами засомневаться в самом себе. Чтобы прочувствовать всю силу сюжета, обязательно нужно изучать мир за пределами головоломок, взаимодействовать с терминалами, читать QR коды и всячески исследовать местность.

Весьма необычный игровой опыт и запоминающееся погружение.

为了写测评，又把游戏打了一遍，恶心死我了......

塔罗斯的法则是一个较为优秀的解谜游戏。你在该游戏中主要目标就是想方设法到达谜题关卡的终点，获得魔符俄罗斯方块。魔符一共有五种颜色，不同的颜色代表着不同的功能，也大致反映了其获取难度。游戏是非线性的，如果你解不出一道谜题，可以先尝试解决其他的谜题。你在游戏中除了解谜之外，还可以跟游戏里电脑中的一个人一群人进行对话，探讨什么是人，价值，道德，意识等哲学问题。

既然是解谜游戏，那么其中谜题的质量当然是最重要的了，然而我个人认为它的谜题质量并没有多高。首先，该游戏中场景非常艳丽，有各种花草树木石雕等的装饰。有这些装饰装点这个世界使它变得更好看并不是坏事，然而这些装饰使得我们找解谜道具变得更加麻烦，虽然我至今已经打了四遍这个游戏，也能算是轻车熟路了，可是有的关卡还是会看得我眼花缭乱，一时找不到解谜道具在哪。其次，游戏关卡数量极多，而总体难度又偏低，很容易会让人感到无聊。
但是！到了DLC就不一样了！DLC谜题质量极高，尤其是最后星星关卡的七道超浓缩精华谜题，里面绝对没有一道谜题会让你感觉无趣，请相信我，要入这游戏请一定一定连同地狱之路DLC一起入！

剧情方面，基本上你跟电脑的对话差不多就是所有剧情了，当然，你收集到的录音，文本也能让你了解一些背景。而你跟电脑的对话，那些关于什么是人，什么是意识，怎样的人才具有价值，或者创造价值，道德如何起到以及起到怎样的作用的这些问题，如果不是学哲学的，可能是会挺颠覆你的想法的，反正我的想法是被颠覆了一遍。但是，你的每个选择，只会影响电脑对你的态度，却不会让你在以后会出现什么特别的分支选择。游戏共有三个结局，需要的魔符数量各不相同。更多剧情方面的感受，下面剧透部分会详谈。

关于风景以及音乐部分，我玩所有3D游戏向来都是开最低画质，但是这游戏不知道为什么每次打开都会给我自动调回比较好的画质，可以说这游戏风景很美，很适合喜欢步行模拟类游戏的人群。音乐方面，每个区域的BGM很贴合该区域的主题风景等，个人觉得听久了也不会腻，大概可能我注意力并不在音乐上吧。

其他方面，该游戏彩蛋数量极多，几乎每个区域的每大关都有彩蛋，DLC中的彩蛋更多，有许多彩蛋还是跟其他游戏有联系的，应该算是致敬吧。并且当你发现了游戏中所有彩蛋之后，在最后某个结局的通关动画还会多出游戏封面上的那只小猫。
配音，简中普通话配音非常优秀！尤其是到了最后的高塔关卡，我觉得那段配音是这整个配音中最好的一段。而繁中的粤语配音，作为一个广东人，我只能说配得很标准，但是并不能听出来感情在里面，相较于普通话配音，我觉得是逊色了点。而其他语言的配音，英语配音听上去也是带有感情的感觉，而日语韩语配音因为听不懂的缘故，就不乱发表意见了。

下面内容涉及剧透并且带有十分主观的个人看法，请谨慎观看：关于这个游戏的剧情，我觉得有其出彩的地方，但我更想说其不足之处。通关并且看过通关动画以及听过所有录音的人都会了解到这个游戏的背景是讲述一个人类濒临灭绝，科学家们开启了这个不断生成程序并进行测试，最终选出一个可被认为是“人”的程序，并将其输入到机械人中的这个计划来以另一种方式延续人类的文明。然而怎样才能被认为是人呢？登到高塔塔顶并最终解决谜题逃出这个世界就可被认为是人......这怎么想都太扯了吧！！！如果让最初的几代误打误撞就逃出去了呢？不要说什么最后的谜题双人合作才能过，单人其实也能过，只是比较困难，而且最后还会有彩蛋是的，你可以说如果初代的程序是没有思想没有感情的，只会遵循埃洛希姆的引导去做的，只有产生思想感情之后才会想要做埃洛希姆一直警告不要去做的事。那么埃洛希姆呢？到了高塔最后的谜题的时候从他的话里可以明显看出他也是有自己的思想的。当然，你还可以说这都是程序早就设定好的，他只是“装得”有思想，那DLC里他又为什么要派个人去救被困的信使呢？希望可能是我想得太多吧。除了这点，我认为游戏里给玩家的选择感觉有点问题，我打通四次，每次都是选不同的选项，希望扮演不一样的，至少看上去是不一样的人格。但是无论怎么选，在A区域最后你还是能得到管理员认证，C区域最后让你选择问他的问题也还是只有那些，你的选择并不会对未来的可以拥有的选择造成任何影响，除了最后最后的选择，而影响也只是区别你离开这个世界时你是否能够带上Milton而已。我打第四遍的时候至少还期待着，如果我完全按照埃洛希姆希望的去做，我是不是会无法再登上高塔，然而并没有，我还是可以上去，这大概也说明了你所扮演的这一代确实是经过了很多次轮回，真真正正有着自己的思想，始终带着怀疑在走的吧。我对这游戏剧情的疑问就只有这些了，如果大家有什么想法，或者看到我上面所说的有什么漏洞，欢迎分享或指正

9.13更新：在@Skywalker的评论中得知，原来埃洛希姆的权限比我想象中的要大得多，它并不仅仅是扮演着一个引导者的角色，他还决定着最终每个子程序是否能够通过独立性检验，还可以随时终止任何一个程序。
另外，也因为@skywalker的评论，我想起来游戏里面翻译存在着很多的问题，看着很像是机翻，但是翻译又不是开发者自己翻译的，是外包出去的。我想可能是译者没有完全了解游戏里面各种设定的相关背景或者只是纯粹的翻译水平不过关，这也是这游戏比较令人感到遗憾的一点小缺点。

The Talos Principle é um jogo de Puzzle filosófico em primeira pessoa (podendo, caso deseje, jogar em terceira pessoa) desenvolvido pela CroTeam, desenvolvedora de Serious Sam, escrito por Tom Jubert ( FTL e The Swapper ) e Jonas Kyratzes ( Infinite Ocean[www.jonas-kyratzes.net] ), e distribuído pela Devolver Digital, a melhor distribuidora de jogos da atualidade, e que possui o melhor CFO da atualidade, o carismático Fork Parker.

• Gameplay: O jogo consiste em resolver puzzles que ficam gradativamente mais difíceis, sendo guiado pela voz de Elohim. Comparações superficiais podem fazer com que o jogo pareça um “Portal sem Portais”, mas no fundo tanto o jogo quanto os puzzles são mais complexos que Portal.
  Além do seu intelecto, você contará com Caixas, Refletores de Laser, Ventiladores, uma espécie de suporte e uma espécie de Rewind (difícil explicar esses dois últimos) para resolver os 100+ puzzles inclusos no jogo.
  O mundo onde o jogo se passa possui três “Catedrais” principais e uma Torre, além de possuir três finais para a sua jornada.
  
  
• História: Para mim, o ponto mais forte do jogo. Em todas as fases você será observado por Elohim, e será constantemente lembrado para resistir à tentação e NUNCA subir na Torre. E em todas as fases você encontrará um computador, um Terminal, aonde encontrará textos passados e também Milton. Milton é algo/alguém que conversa contigo nos Terminais e contesta tudo o que Elohim diz. Nisso, o jogo passa uma ideia de Adão e Eva que vai martelar sua cabeça até o fim.
  Nesses terminais, como dito acima, você encontrará textos. E muitos deles são ensinamentos, partes da Bíblia, partes de livros de História e Filosofia... Entre os meus favoritos, estão esses trechos sobre Família, Morte, Morte e Vida e esse trecho famoso do porquê estudarmos História.
  Pararei aqui pois desejo evitar spoilers.
  
  
• Soundtrack: Magnífica. Não é no nível da soundtrack de The Banner Saga, mas é tão poderosa quanto. Com uma mistura de músicas mais “locais” dependendo do estilo da Fase com um pouco de música orquestrada que relembram as igrejas antigas imitando o efeito que a Abóboda causa na reverberação.

• Gráficos: Lindos. CroTeam utilizou a mesma engine de Serious Sam 3, mas com um incremento de qualidade na arte, o que deixou o jogo com visuais magníficos. Infelizmente joguei ele no Médio/Baixo, então não levem minhas screenshots como exemplos do gráfico final do jogo.

The Talos Principle foi lançado sem muita cobertura da mídia em cima, mas que conseguiu me surpreender ao ponto de desbancar jogos como Wolfenstein TNO, South Park SoT e The Banner Saga da minha lista de jogos favoritos, virando o meu GOTY 2014.

Nota 100/100

I used to be happy.

Now i question reality and consciousness, what it means to be alive within the scope of determinism, and suffer from crippling anxiety and existentialism.

I’ve been pleasantly surprised by games before, but never have I been so biased against a game prior to its release then subsequently impressed by every aspect of it upon playing. “From the developers of Serious Sam, one of my least favorite franchises. I bet I will really enjoy this,” I sarcastically said to myself when the pre-order page went up. I did enjoy it. It is wonderful. It is easily one of the best games I’ve played.

The Talos Principle is one giant existential question that can be answered through solving over one hundred smaller, physics-based puzzles under the guidance of your maker, Elohim, whose intimidating voice attempts to influence you from above at every turn. This might seem a strange way to label the game’s genre, but it’s accurate and the story manages to never feel at all pretentious despite addressing philosophical subject matter. While the majority of your time is spent solving the smaller puzzles, it always feels as if you’re doing it for a higher purpose or to unravel the larger mystery looming overhead, so the game successfully maintains a careful balance where both the story and puzzles are one and equally important.

This journey takes you through several temple-like environments, each containing a number of doorways leading to distinct worlds. In each of these worlds, you’ll find several self-contained puzzle areas that can also occasionally interact with each other in an advanced way to reveal secrets, and you'll access computer terminals to gradually uncover lore, important context and bits of the story. Completing puzzles rewards you with pieces used to solve tetromino puzzles that unlock doors to new environments, even more puzzles, and new tools used to steadily increase puzzle difficulty and prevent them from becoming stale.

Solving puzzles requires manipulating and avoiding mobile mines, turrets, laser beam connectors, fans and cubes, as well as cooperating with recordings of yourself replaying your actions, but it never gets frantic and you’ll never feel hurried. There’s no real dexterity or speed requirement here, so you can relax and figure things out at your own pace.

Initially, puzzles aren’t very challenging but you’ll come to appreciate how increasingly clever they are. At some point, I thought I’d outsmarted the game only to discover later this isn’t possible and it was always meant to be so open and unrestrictive. The most difficult puzzles are only required if you want to find all of the secrets within the game and discover as many answers as possible, which is highly recommended and completely worth the effort.

The Talos Principle takes itself seriously and explores concepts like faith, free will, humanity, loyalty and purpose, with your journey unfolding much like that of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden: In the beginning, you don't know or question much and simply follow instructions but, by the time you wander around and have your first taste of knowledge, you may develop a thirst for it and begin to question everything around you. It's easy to become completely engrossed in the setting.

If you don't enjoy reading in games and skip through text, you'll miss out on a lot of what makes The Talos Principle more than just another good game, but it's still worth playing even for the puzzles alone. On a technical level, the game is impeccable: graphics, sound, voice acting, controls and optimization are all top-notch, and there are even settings for proper AA and field of view. The environments are beautiful, as is the soundtrack.

On a final note, QR codes that reveal text are left behind on walls by NPCs and friends who have played the game before you and you can also leave these pre-written messages for your Steam friends. One of these messages claims you’ve discovered the most beautiful spot in the game and, as there is a number of beautiful landscapes, I had been trying to decide where to leave that message for quite a while. I had been playing in first-person the entire time and ultimately left the message somewhere I never expected to: next to a mirror I encountered late in the game. It’s something that will only make sense if you end up loving the game as much as I do, but it was completely appropriate.

portalとmystを足したようなゲーム
滅んだ世界？で創造主によって作られたロボットを操作していく一人称パズルゲーム
パズル難易度はそこまで難しくないが、赤いピースの難易度は悩むときは相当悩みます
景色がとても綺麗で限られた範囲だけだが探索も楽しいです

なお日本語有りとなっていますがテキストの訳はかなり変なので基本的にボイス字幕のみ対応と考えた方がいいです

興味があるならデモ版であるThe Talos Principle public test(英語のみ)とミニゲームのsigils of elohim(無料)をオススメします

※1月30日に日本語ボイスが追加されました。若干テキストの訳も変わっている気がします。

11/10 I laughed, I cried, I couldn't breathe for the transcendent apotheosis.
If you love puzzles, you'll love the gameplay.
If you love thoughtful, emergent storytelling, you'll love the writing.
If, like me, you're slowly but steadily healing from decades of religious abuse, playing through this game will change your life.

Bought this game during Winter sales because there's a kitty on the cover.

Turns out this game is a masterpiece!

Morality: always trust kitties.

一个游戏推出了4年，直到今天还有更新……这是一种什么样的精神？！

It's phenomenal. It's a first person puzzler, so naturally there are comparisons to Portal.

Basically it's Portal with some different tools at your disposal and instead of making you laugh, it makes you question your entire existence.

10/10 would quit my job and cry in a corner.

The Talos Principle é uma gema preciosa, como Portal 1 e 2. Entre diversos fracos games focados em Puzzles, este oferece de fato um desafio, ao longo de seus mais de 200 quebra-cabeças. Torna-se aditivo quando somos barrados ou quando as metralhadoras automáticas no matam e devemos começar do "zero" o mesmo desafio. Os meios a nossa disposição, nos proporcionam mais de uma forma de resolução do mesmo desafio.

Aliado a estes excelentes e divertidos puzzles, Elohim (Palavra hebráica para Deus), nos impulsiona no jogo, através de cenários deslumbrantes e imersivos, recheados com uma trilha sonora enigmática. É um jogo que se baseia na exploração e na curiosidade. Naquela força que nos move em direção ao desconhecido, ao proibido.

The Talos Principle é um game filosófico. É importante a tradução para o português do Brasil por causa disto. As diversas mensagens nas paredes, nos terminais, que vamos recebendo, irão formado um arcabouço filosófico importante e interessante. Até mesmo para repensarmos princípios e conceitos de nossas vidas pessoais e profissionais, como a filosofia mostra. Muitas vezes, tendemos a pensar que "isto é isto porque é assim". Mas que tal nos aprofundarmos ?

Acreditamos sermos perfeitos porque fomos feitos à semelhança de Deus. Acreditamos ser seres únicos no universo. Não é muita pretensão de nossa parte ? Se é, o que nos tornou desta forma ? Se fôssemos acomodados com a frase: "Isto é assim porque Deus quis" estaríamos tão avançados cientificamente ? Não é a curiosidade e experimentação empírica que levou às maiores descobertas científicas ?

O design gráfico do jogo é fantástico, paisagens lindíssimas, com construções e estátuas que lembram as civilizações Egípcia e Romana. A música é divina, religiosa. Será que foi colocada desta forma, deliberadamente, para sugerir a inserção de padrões de pensamento dentro da própria religião ? O famoso conflito entre a religião e a filosofia (ou qualquer outra ciência) é que uma se baseia na fé, e outra no raciocínio. ? Uma sacia-se em Deus, e a outra vai além, buscando sempre mais conhecimento. Mas isto tem de ser assim para sempre ?

O gameplay é em primeira pessoa, o que aumenta a imersão do jogo, principalmente, nos puzzles. Este puzzles são formados por figuras geométricas 3D, que o jogador tem de coletar, após decifrar o quebra-cabeça, que conta com barreiras laser, metralhadoras, entre outros. É dentro deste contexto, que o jogador percorre os diversos mundos, coletando pistas em terminais, paredes, quebra-cabeças, sempre recebendo pistas de Elohim.

Ao coletar figuras geométricas, o player tem acesso a outros mundos e informações. Até chegar na torre proibida. O jogo consegue manter e prender você tamanho o mistério que ele envolve. Quem não quer saber de onde veio, para onde vai ? Qual seu propósito aqui ? é isto que o jogo instiga a descobrir.

O jogo, neste momento em Beta Público, apresenta alguns problemas com a tradução em Português do Brasil, mas nada que vá realmente estragar sua experiência interativa. Prepare-se, entretanto, para torrar os miolos nos puzzles, em dificuldade crescente. Não são desafios que fazem você se sentir um "imbecil" quando acha a resposta. Ao contrário, fazem você perceber que seus neurônios funcionam.

O game da Croteam é formidável. Uma obra prima, que o manterá por dias envolvido em puzzles e mistérios a serem desvendados.

* Estou colocando isto aqui por obrigação do Steam, segundo a nova política. Assim como muitos outros jogos que NÃO INDIQUEI, recebi este game para teste da empresa, por conta de um blog que tenho.

Игра от создателей Serious Sam. Поначалу кажется - а что еще могут сделать создатели обычного мясного шутана? Ответ - Да нечто классное.
Играем мы за андроида, с которым постоянно общается создатель. Он отправляет нас проходить испытания, искать "сигилы". Дальше я ничего по сюжету говорить не буду. Все, что я могу сказать, может оказаться спойлером. Сюжет тут неплохой, и лучше его самим познавать. Но для полного понимания картины, нужно не только проходить испытания и слушать создателя, но так же читать много текста в компьютерных терминалах и находить аудиозаписи, раскиданные по игровому миру(их немного).
Тут есть 3 концовки и как закончить игру, выбираете только вы.
Что же в этой игре есть и что можно сделать?

• Красивые миры, которых в игре несколько.
  
• Трудные испытания. Над некоторыми надо очень долго думать. И это, безусловно, плюс для тех, кто любит поломать мозг.
  
• Отсылки. Моооре отсылок. Но, не все так просто найти. Что бы найти некоторые, надо подумать не меньше, чем в испытаниях.
  
• Звезды. Это дополнительные элементы, с помощью которых открываются особые двери с еще несколькими головоломками. Звезды эти спрятаны в некоторых испытаниях и достать их еще сложнее! Тут уже придется еще глобальнее думать, возможно даже задействовать предметы из других головоломок . Но для любителей посложнее это только в радость.
  
• Котики. Да, превьюшка игры вас не обманывает. "The cats is not a lie!"
  
• Возможность пофилософствовать с компьютером. А так же почитать интересную информацию.
  
• Можете оставлять QR-коды на стенах (но из списка заранее подготовленных фраз) и ваши друзья тоже смогут увидеть их в своей игре.
  
• Если вам очень сложно, но хотите все таки по-честному пройти, то можете позвать на помощь Посланника, который "подтолкнет" на верную мысль. Однако, тут тоже не всё просто. Даже на подсказку надо заработать. Ибо Посланников надо сначала будить, что тоже потребует времени на размышления.
  
• А так же для выполнения заданий есть разные предметы типа куба, джеммера, коннектора, вентиллятора, платформы и рекордера. Все это открывается постепенно. И игра сама решает, в какой головоломке, чем вам пользоваться.

Если хотите доп. историю, то купите dlc Road to Gehenna. События там разворачиваются ближе к финалу оригинальной игры.
Само длс, как мне показалось, даже посложнее кое-где. А еще тут можно поиграть в текстовую рпг. Так что не брезгуйте подходить к терминалам, что бы поучавствовать в форуме, голосованиях, поиграть с адроидами и пройти текстовый квест(развлекуха такая только в длс).
Prototype dlc можно порекомендовать только тем, кому интересно, как выглядела игра изначально. Сложные и разнообразные задания вы тут вряд ли увидите.
И, если вы фанат Серьезного Сэма, то не забудьте купить Serious dlc. Оно добавляет функцию смены голоса озвучки в настройках с оригинального Элохима на Серьезного Сэма. Вот только я сама в сюжете не проверяла, говорит он тоже самое, либо же что-то свое. Но, если попробовать выйти за карту, то Сэм объясняет игроку, почему нас автоматом возвращают в начало(хоть это итак всем ясно).
Если вам и этого мало, то скачайте Sigils of Elohim (бесплатная и от тех же разрабов). Там нужно играть сегилами, проходить задания и получать за это спец. коды, которые надо активировать в игре. Игру можно поставить и на мобильник. Так что можно играть в любой момент, где бы вы не находились.
The Talos Principle - игра, которая придется по вкусу любителям сложных головоломок. Если вы думаете, что в этой игре нет ничего от Сэма, то вы ошибаетесь. Вы все таки увидите тут похожие локации, а так же взрывы и стрельбу. Неожиданно для на вид тихой спокойной головоломки, да?
Ну и напоследок всем зачем-то Грустного жирафа с непослушными ногами

Ce jeu DECHIRE.
Je ne pensais pas que j'aimerais tant un jeu d'énigmes, surtout quand le postulat de départ qu'internet m'a donné était "c'est comme portal mais en sérieux"...
Mais ça marche. Mélangeant jeu de réflexion, science-fiction et philosophie (le thème de l'IA et de la conscience humaine et très développé, ainsi que la notion de religion), tout est très bien orchestré, et les réponses viennent au rythme des énigmes qui ponctuent le jeu.
Les énigmes sont merveilleusement orchestrées, avec une difficulté croissante, et surtout, se basant sur trois ou 4 objets manipulables, arrivent pourtant à tout le temps renouveler leur utilisation - et du coup, à toujours douter de nos acquis, tester des trucs, les évaluer, les améliorer - un vrai guide du petit ingénieur face à un problème donné ! Vraiment, croyez-moi, les développeurs ont vraiment fait un boulot d'enfer sur la façon de recycler mille fois les possibilités, et surtout, de ne jamais (trop) frustrer le joueur face à une énigme trop tordue.
Quant au scénario, ma foi... il est tout à fait pertinent, même s'il faut l'avouer un peu lent à se dérouler. Pour résumer, Dieu nous ordonne de résoudre ses énigmes dans son univers étrange, tandis que le diable discute avec nous via des terminaux pour nous pousser à la faute (aller dans la fameuse tour dont Dieu nous a interdit l'accès...) et surtout, à nous questionner plutôt qu'à obéir bêtement.
Et pour finir... et bien c'est un monde ouvert, et du coup, c'est bourrrrrréééééé de secrets, certains servant le gameplay, et d'autres étant des easter eggs très souvent hilarants. Il y en a partout, tout explorer pour tout trouver est aussi un objectif en soi.

Je conseille vivement ce jeu, même si attention cependant :
- Il y a des longueurs sur la fin, avec des énigmes vraiment tordues là où on aurait aimé toucher plus rapidement du doigt la conclusion du scénario.
- Il y a beaucoup d'archives à lire dans le jeu, qui sont nécessaires à la compréhension de l'histoire. Donc entre deux énigmes, préparez-vous à faire la lecture ^^
- Les énigmes sont aussi bien, sinon mieux pensées que celles de Portal, mais ce n'est pas l'humour qui les lie, mais bien un scénario d'anticipation SF philosophique ; c'est jamais indigeste, mais ce n'est pas "léger" non plus... j'ai trouvé ça passionant, mais je suis un gros lecteur donc...
- La VF est pas toujours au point... et du coup, lorsqu'on est dans de grandes discussions philosophiques avec le diable, c'est parfois agaçant de ne pas comprendre une blague cynique qu'il nous envoie parce que sa grammaire est ignoble ^^°

Bref.
C'est un excellent jeu, qui mérite d'être essayé, que ce soit pour son gameplay, ou son histoire. Foncez !

Believe the hype. Believe the 10/10 net reviews. They are the truth.

I hadn't heard of The Talos Principle and frankly can't remember where I heard of it. I think the PC Gamer RSS feed. No matter. I'll be the first to admit that puzzle games aren't in any way my genre of preference - I'm much more likely to be found playing games such as Unreal Tournament, Mechwarrior Online or a hard-core flight sim. Puzzle games, until now, really haven't captured my imagination or interest.

The thing that drew me to the Talos Principle was the notion that it combined a puzzle game, and a beautifully rendered one at that, with notions of the meaning of intelligence, the question of how "life" can be defined, what "artificial intelligence" would look like. I have a keen interest in philosophy, something that the reviews stated was very much at the center of the Talos Principle. So, I decided to take the plunge and I'm *extremely* glad that I did so.

The game is beautifully presented. The Serious engine (as in the FPS game Serious Sam) presents a very nicely rendered world. Each of the puzzles is set in themed ancient Roman, ancient Greek or medieval settings. Having recently spent a week in Rome the ancient Roman themed portions were very familiar and very well representative of ancient Roman remains.

The puzzles themselves ramp up very well in terms of difficulty, with early ones being very simple to solve. Later puzzles and in particular special puzzles that grant access to bonus areas can be absolutely fiendish. That being said, unlike most puzzle games I've never given up in disgusted frustration - the puzzles and tools that you unlock to assist you are intuitive enough to make you want to solve the puzzle to progress or to unlock more of the thematic content.

Speaking of which, this game is superbly grounded in philosophy, well presented themes from science fiction and indeed theology. Far from being a simple solve-this-puzzle-then-on-to-the-next, this game makes the player really think about such questions as who they are (in game), what they are and whether you are in fact merely a metaphorical rat in a maze. It should be noted that the game absolutely does not require any knowledge of philosophy or sci-fi tropes, but if you are familiar with the concepts developed by the likes of Soren Kierkegaard, Lev Shestov, Carl Sagan or A.C. Clark the game is absolutely that much more immersive and enjoyable.

I'm really, really impressed by the Talos Principle on many different levels. This is one of the most intelligently designed and presented games I've ever had the pleasure of playing. Everything from the graphics, quality of the voice acting, in-game presentation, music, even the controlls have obviously been developed with a lot of thought.

Bored of yet another generic, mindless, so-called "AAA blockbuster" game that was identical to the last 5? Give this game a try, you'll be amazed and impressed by how fun it is to play and perhaps more importantly how it makes you really think.

Absolutely 10/10. Unhesitatingly recommended.

Hay veces que al abrir un documento nuevo para escribir el análisis de un juego no se por dónde empezar. Tantas cosas que decir y tan poco sitio… Maldito limite de caracteres.

¿Por qué empiezo así? Porque esta es una de esas veces. The Talos Principle tiene tantísimas cosas buenas que no se cual realzar primero, no se cual dejar para el final ni sé que meter entre medio. Si pudiese decir todo en una frase… Pues…
The Talos Principle es arte.

Hay juegos que rozan el arte, Bastión en su aspecto gráfico, Braid en su aspecto narrativo. Pero The Talos Principle es arte de arriba abajo. Es una obra que derrocha esfuerzo allá por donde vas. Se nota el mimo que han puesto, es redondo. Acabado, entero, perfecto.

Una vez le hemos comido suficiente la poll** a mis ilusiones, vamos ♥♥♥ el análisis.
Supe de este juego hace mucho y nada mas leer los nombres detrás de su producción quise tocarlo. Los creadores de Serious Sam junto al guionista de The Swapper. Algo buena podía esperar pero lo que encontré ante mi… Fue aun mejor.
La historia es redonda. Es compleja a la vez que intuitiva. Te mueves por un arco argumental un poco abstracto pero más tarde que pronto acaban ayudándote a hilar todo y comprenderlo. No es uno de esos juegos que se basan en el desconocimiento para quedar por encima de ti y hacerte pensar que la historia es buenísima, en este caso te lo enseñan todo y te dejan ver lo titánico del guión.

A nivel jugable es perfecto. Si bien el hecho de haber usado el mismo motor gráfico que usaron para hacer Serious Sam 3 al principio me desconcertaba un poco más tarde acabas por acomodarte y le sienta genial. Los escenarios son una maravilla y el Nexo (La torre) es, sin más palabras, acojonante. Tiene una variedad suficiente para no aburrir en las largas horas de juego que vas a querer darle.

Los puzles cumplen de una manera soberbia. Desde hace unos meses que me pase Antichamber unos puzzles no me habían gustado tanto. Empiezan fácil y se tornan bastante complejos según pasa el tiempo. En ese apartado es desafiante de verdad. Pero, como les pasa a otros, este no llega a rozar lo absurdo en su dificultad y vas a poder ♥♥♥ todo tarde o temprano ♥♥♥ pensar un poquito.

La banda sonora es de 10 y algunos temas son para recordar. El doblaje al español está muy currado, sobretodo en la voz de la chica, un sonido limpio y una interpretación perfecta.
Podría escribir folios y folios sobre lo mucho que me ha gustado, pero es mejor no extenderse y desglosar un poquito las cosas.


Puntos positivos:

- La historia. Sublime.
- Los puzles, entretenidos y desafiantes. Algunos complicados pero nada imposible.
- Una cantidad ingente de EasterEggs.
- El sistema de mensajes, puedes dejar una cosa apuntada en una pared y tus amigos pueden verla cuando pasen por allí en su juego.
- La música y el doblaje. Ambas cosas perfectas.
- La duración. Entre 10 y 15 horas sin llegar a aburrir. Bastante más para sacar todos los logros (A mi me ha llevado 20 horas). Es impresionante que un juego de puzles dure tanto y no te aburras en ningún momento.
- Su apartado técnico, a nivel visual es hermoso.
- A nivel jugable y de montaje de niveles no tiene errores, al fin un juego bien testeado.
- Un buen rendimiento en PC’s algo más bajos.
- Steam Workshop. La comunidad ha creado ya algunos mapas para jugarlos que están geniales, se disfruta esta opción y se agradece que exista.
- Logros. Si, ¡logros! Bastantes y muy entretenidos de sacar, le dan más vida útil al juego sin abusar de tener que repetir una y otra vez todo el trayecto para sacarlos. En 2 partidas me saque todos.


Puntos negativos:

- Quizás el único punto malo sea que ♥♥♥ equipos muy potentes se cierra en momentos puntuales... Pero ♥♥♥ desactivar una cosa en el menú de opciones esto se soluciona. Ademas, los desarrolladores responden ♥♥♥ mucha rapidez en el foro. Es de agradecer tal implicación
- No se que poner aquí… Sinceramente… ¿Qué el DLC vale mucho? Jo… Lo quiero probar pero 5 euros por contenido desechado es molto para mi body…
- En serio. No se que poner. Este juego es, de verdad, perfecto.


Resumen:

The Talos Principle es un videojuego de puzles redondo. Goza de una narrativa digna de un libro o película y la han adaptado tan bien que encaja a la perfección. Se nota el trabajo de los dos guionistas (Tom Jubert (FTL, The Swapper) y Jonas Kyratzes (Infinite ocean, The Sea Will Claim Everything).)

Se lo recomiendo encarecidamente a todos aquellos que disfruten ya sea de vez en cuando o asiduamente de los juegos que te hacen pensar un poco. Si te gusta una buena historia o disfrutas ♥♥♥ los videojuegos bien construidos.

Es, junto a Antichamber, mi favorito.

I don't write reviews for games much.
I don't finish many of my games.
I don't usually go back to games I've finished to get all the endings.
I don't normally get heavily invested into storylines of games too much.

This game changed everything.
This game was awesome.

这个配音的专业性让我怀疑他是不是Ai，翻译是机翻的，很抽象也很迷惑，但是配音真的很有情感的都读出来了，实在是专业又敬业

游戏确实。。。呕。。。。很有意思。。呕。。。。。。就是。。呕。。。。。。。。。。。

I'm 37, been gaming since 7, this is one of the games i will forever keep in my heart.

IN THE BEGINNING WERE THE WORDS AND THE WORDS MADE THE WORLD. I AM THE WORDS. THE WORDS ARE EVERYTHING. WHERE THE WORDS END THE WORLD ENDS. YOU CANNOT GO FORWARD IN THE ABSENCE OF SPACE. REPEAT. IN THE BEGINNING WERE THE WORDS AND THE WORDS MADE THE WORLD. I AM THE WORDS. THE WORDS ARE EVERYTHING. WHERE THE WORDS END THE WORLD ENDS. YOU CANNOT GO FORWARD IN THE ABSENCE OF SPACE. REPEAT.

The Talos Principle, czyli filozoficzno, logiczna gra, ktorą stawiam zaraz obok Portala. Jest to podobny kaliber gry, lecz z odrobine innym założeniem. Jeśli lubisz się pogłowić, wyławiać smaczki z różnych zakątków gry, filozofię i dotyczące jej teksty - i nie tylko, to nie masz co czekać. The Talos Principle jest tytułem dla Ciebie.

Grę przeszedłem już przeszło dwa, może trzy lata temu w dodatku dwa razy. Nie jest ona typem gry, po której możesz żałować straconego czasu. Wręcz przeciwnie. Talos jest inteligentną grą, w której teksty zmuszają do myślenia i rzucają ciekawe perspektywy na kilka spraw. Takie gry się szanuję, ponieważ nie są one już zwykłym zabijaniem czasu. One potrafią też dowartościować.

Pomijając te atuty, Talos oprócz tego jest owiany tajemnicą, co też jest ciekawym zabiegiem. Niemalże od początku gry jesteśmy postawieni przed wyborem, który myślę, że mógłbym nazwać analogią do jabłka i Adama. Konkretniej mówiąć dość szybko Elohim (Bóg) zabrania nam jednej jedynej rzeczy, a my rozwiązując w tym czasie zagadki zastanawiamy się nad tym, czy chcemy go posłuchać.

Mógłbym napisać więcej i skupić się też na wadach tytułu, ależ po co. Gra ma swój urok i jeżeli kogoś zainteresowała moja krótka recenzja to cóż... polecam.

Прекрасная игра-головоломка от 1 лица, создателями которой являются Croteam(Serious Sam). Игра завораживает и заинтриговывает с первых минут геймплея, изобилует не только интересными загадками и методами их решения, но и своеобразной философией, сопряжение этих факторов неплохо характеризует атмосферу игры в целом.
Вы окунетесь в мир в роли робота, чьим предназначением является решение головоломок, постепенно, при помощи случайных сообщений и прохождения сюжета, завеса тайны будет приоткрываться втягивая в новые сюжетные повороты.
Нельзя не признать очевидное сходство этой игры с Portal, и потому фанаты портала будут не разочарованы еще одной возможностью окунуться в мир головоломок, ломая мозги над очередной камерой. Признаю некоторые решения оказываются не очевидными и приходилось терять битый час на их решение, за некоторыми ответами я шел на ютуб, все это лишь подогревало интерес к игре.
В общем и целом, брать по скидке и наслаждаться.

今天打通了Talos的三个结局 满是成就感下面是我的一点看法
这是我游戏生涯中最喜欢的一部作品 所以吹的比较多
游戏作为解密游戏关卡繁多，需要玩家耐心攻克（解密游戏你没有耐心可是不行的）可用工具有七个，结局有三个可供选择，前两个结局对于解迷萌新还算友好，第三结局需要收集全星星，难度很大，很多情况下你是找不到的，如果想体验第三结局，可以搜索大佬的攻略，至于晕3D的话，推荐在画面设置里调试亮度，伽马值，对比度，直到调到一个能适应的搭配，并关闭动态模糊，帧数低就请优化帧数

游戏的故事皆是藏于游戏中，需要玩家收集全日志和时间胶囊，将其整理后阅读，隐藏的故事也是非常棒
游戏内涵丰富：哲学 宗教 人 意识 理性，给人一种庄重感
游戏画面不多说，每一帧都是壁纸，每一眼都是风景
游戏音乐，玩过csgo的都知道，被收录为csgo官方音乐盒，是史诗级的音乐类型，气势宏大

还有一点使我对游戏制作者心生尊敬和佩服，Croteam是制作过英雄萨姆系列的克罗地亚公司，虽说也是老牌了，但肯定没有其他大厂的规模和生产力，但是从塔罗斯的法则所支持的13种语言和12种配音，可见其态度之不一般 我TM吹爆！

2015年4月5日23:05:37第一次评测：
推荐理由：这是一款非常有意思的解谜游戏，只要你有正常人的智商，根本不用看攻略就能玩的转。同时整个故事富含了物理哲学，让我们在游戏过程中不断的思考、质问、探寻生命的意义，如果你是个学哲学的，那买它肯定没错了。
以下是我最初购买的主要原因，写出来给大家做个参考：
1、时效性，打折50%，正好STEAM钱包里还有点零钱
2、奖项栏里那足够用鼠标滑轮滚动5秒的奖项
3、解谜类游戏锻炼大脑，远离脑残刷刷刷游戏一生平安
4、独立游戏，还自带中文语言包，最惊奇的是居然还有中文配音！这种游戏见一个买一个！
5、狂热的虚构文学、哲学爱好者，同时本人在上学时也随导师学习过一阵关于人工智能方面的知识，对这方面有所了解（尤其是看到那个程序界面特别有感情）

总结：买买买！不买还是人吗？！就算不打折也要买！
（点赞者好人一生平安）

We have a winner here people! This is one of the best games i have EVER played. I believe it's a must-have for every fan of the puzzle genre, Croteam did an outstanding job with this one. You can see from the very beginning how much they cared about their game, how much they wanted it to succeed. This is nothing like the uninspired, unoptimized cash-grabbing console ports we are used to nowadays.

But let me correct myself. This is not just a game, it is an experience. The talos principle will make you question your existence, your purpose in life. Even if you aren't really into philosophy, it will make you go look up some quotes of famous philosophers.
Every aspect of it is superb, the riddles, the visuals, the atmosphere, the music, everything works out.
Don't expect it to hold your hand though. The puzzles may seem easy peasy in the beginning but as you progress they will become harder and harder. There are some really difficult ones later in the game, so get ready for the challenge!

In conclusion, i can't recommend it enough. This is a masterpiece. I bought it at full price but it was worth it. No regrets!

İsimsiz bir ''Android Robot'' olan karakterimiz, çok huzurlu ve güneşli bir ortamda uyanır. ''Elohim'' isimli üstün bir varlık tarafından, kendisi için yarattığı dünyaları keşfetmesini ve çeşitli bulmacaları çözerek tüm işaretleri toplaması gerektiğini işitir. Ancak tüm bunları yaparken dünyanın merkezindeki kuleye tırmanmaması gerektiğini ve bu kuralı çiğnediği takdirde öleceğini söyler. Karakterimiz bulmacaları çözdükçe ve bu yaratılan muhteşem yerde ilerledikçe, bu dünyaların yalnızca sanal gerçeklikte var olduğunu ve karşılaştığı diğer robotlar gibi kendininde bir yapay zeka olduğunu öğrenir. Tanıştığı bazı yapay zekalar tartışmasız Elohim'e hizmet ederken bazıları ise ona güvenilmemesi gerektiğini beyan eder. Bundan sonra ise karakterimizin bir seçim yapması gerekir, ya sorgusuz sualsiz Elohim'in cennetine varacak ya da o kuleye tırmanıp gerçeklerin peşinden gidecek.

HİKAYE ANLATIMI VE SUNUM

Çoğu oyunun aksine The Talos Principle'a ilk girdiğinizde sizi baştan anlatılacak bir hikaye değil de oynanışa yedirilmiş bir anlatım bekliyor olacak. Daha oyunun başında hiç bilmediğiniz bir yerde uyanıyorsunuz ve Elohim isimli üstün bir varlık tarafından hem amacınızın ne olduğunu öğreniyor hem de yönlendiriliyorsunuz. Ana hikaye ve ayrıntılarda saklı olan gizler ise yavaş yavaş (Diğer oyuncuların duvarlara yazmış olduğu QR kodların içindeki gizli mesajlar, yeri geldiğinde kurnaz davranabilen yapay zeka PC ile yaptığımız soru cevap ve tartışmalar, Alexandra Drennan isimli kadının önceden kaydedilmiş ses kayıtları gibi unsurlar sayesinde hikayeye dair şeyler öğreniyoruz.) aktarılıyor. Bunların yanı sıra tüm oyun boyunca yalnız ve kişiliksiz bir robot olduğumuzdan dolayı etrafla pek bir etkileşimimiz olmuyor fakat Elohim bu ıssızlığı anlatıları ile gideriyor. Ayrıca oyunun teması gereği insanlığın varoluşsal sorunları ve felsefi konular da sık sık işleniyor.

OYNANIŞ MEKANİKLERİ VE BULMACALAR

Her ''Croteam'' oyununda olduğu gibi bu oyunda da varsayılan ayar olarak ''FPS'' istersek de ''TPS'' (Gerek atmosferik açıdan olsun gerek oynanış rahatlığı olsun, birinci şahıs kamera açısı çok daha iyi hissettiriyor ve en iyi oyun deneyimini veriyor.) olarak oynayabiliyoruz. Oyun mantığını ana hatları ile anlatacak olursak; Toplam 21 seviyeden oluşan A, B ve C (Bölümler arası kapıları açmak için yapmamız gereken bambaşka bir bulmaca mekaniği var. Her seviyeden kazandığımız ''Sigil'' kilitleri denilen tetris benzeri şekilleri bir tablet üzerinde doğru sırada oturtarak yeni bölümlerin kapılarını açıyoruz.) bölümlerindeki çeşitli bulmacaları tamamlıyoruz. Bu bulmacalar (Sinyal bozucu ile kapı açma ya da taret ve bombaları etkisiz hale getirme, lazer yansıtıcı, kutu, taşıma levhası, üzerinden uçtuğumuz pervane ve yarattığımız klon ile senkronize şekilde bulmacalar çözüyoruz. Takıldığımız takdirde ise Elohim'in hizmetkârlarına yardım çağrısında bulunabiliyoruz.) başlarda çok basit görünüyor fakat oyunun ilerleyen kısımlarında öğrendiğimiz tüm mekanikleri tek bir bulmacada kullanmak zorunda kaldığımızdan dolayı çok daha kompleks bir hal alıyor. Bunların yanı sıra tüm bölümlere saklanmış olan yıldızları toplayarak bambaşka bir bölüm açıyoruz ve orayı tamamladığımızda ise sonsuza kadar Elohim'e hizmet ettiğimiz gizli son açılıyor.

BÖLÜM TASARIMLARI VE ATMOSFER

Oyunun bölüm tasarımları (Yıkık harabeler, ışıl ışıl ormanlar, eski tapınaklar, sahil kenarı, karlı dağlar, antik mısır kalıntıları, kaleler, mezarlık vs.) çok minimal fakat etkileyici. Bunun yanı sıra Elohim'in yasakladığı 6 katlı kule çok iyi dizayn edilmiş ve her bir katı sizi bambaşka diyarlara götürüyor. Ayrıca bazen tekrar eden bu bölümleri, atmosferik gece - gündüz döngüsü, yağmurlu ve güneşli hava gibi mevsimsel unsurlar ile çeşitlendirmeye çalışmışlar.

SES VE MÜZİK

Üstün varlık Elohim ve geleceğe ses kayıtları bırakmış olan Alexandra Drennan dışında oyunda hiçbir konuşma bulunmuyor. Zaten bu iki karakter gerek diyalogları olsun gerek tok sesleri olsun üçüncü bir sesi de aratmıyor. Ayrıca çevre sesleri atmosferi dibine yaşatacak kadar iyi. Bunların dışında ise oyunun mükemmel müzikleri sizi alıp başka diyarlara götürebiliyor. (Oyunu bitirdikten sonra bile arada açıp açıp dinliyorum.)
THE TALOS PRINCIPLE - SOUNDTRACK

SONUÇ

Portal serisini oynayıp da beğenmeyen yoktur diye düşünüyorum. The Talos Principle benim nazarımda bu serinin ruhani devamıdır. Portal 1 ve 2'de hissettiklerimi tam olarak bu oyunda hissedememiş olsamda yer yer aynı zevkleri aldım. Eğer FPS, bulmaca tarzı keşif oyunlarını seviyorsanız bu yapıtı kesinlikle almanızı tavsiye ederim. İndirim dönemlerinde 5,90 TL olan fiyatını sonuna kadar hak ediyor. Direk çizgisel ilerleyip oyunu bitirirseniz 15, her şeyini görüp tüm sonları keşfetmek isterseniz de 17 - 18 saat sürüyor.

do you like portal? do you wish portal was about 10 times longer and took itself really really seriously? Then this is the game for you!

An excellent, challenging puzzle game. Music and visuals are beautiful. The story is capturing and makes you think about philosophical existential themes. Easter eggs in the game are fun to find.
10/10

大概半年前我买了这份游戏，第一关都没有通关
因为这个游戏让我发现了我3D眩晕
然而前段时间悄摸摸通关了人类一败涂地
让我以为自己3D眩晕可能是好了吧
于是再一次鼓起勇气打开了这个游戏
不说了，我就打开一分钟。我要去休息一会。

If Portal had a cool, older sibling, it would be The Talos Principle.

"Philosophical science fiction" just about sums it up. This game makes you think in more ways than one with its crazy puzzles and smart commentary on humanity, morality, and consciousness, and the visuals are great as well. Even playing through it for the third or fouth time hunting for achievements, the game still amazes me.

My recommendation: Do not use a wiki guide on your first playthrough and spoil the fun. Be amazed. THEN go back and realized you missed 85 percent of the game.

重厚な世界観の3Dパズルゲームです。
謎の地で突然目覚めた主人公（ロボット）は天からの声に従い、ひたすらパズルを解き続けていきます。

パズルは100個以上ありますが、1つ1つは短いので、サクサクと進められます。
ジャミング機能を持ったジャマー、謎のビームを屈折させるコネクター、物を吹き飛ばすファンなどを使い、障害物をうまく処理していく必要があります。
パズルの難易度はほどよく、試行錯誤していれば大体は解けてしまいますが、1割ほどはかなり難易度が高いです。発想の飛躍が求められます。
ヒント機能もありますが、ゲーム中3回しか使用できない上、使用できるようにするのにもパズルを解かないといけないというクッソ面倒なシステムです。しかもそのヒントもそこまでわかりやすくないという…。
隠しEDに行くためのアイテムである「星」が各所に隠されているのですが、これの入手方法は激烈に難しいです。自力入手はあきらめた方がいいレベルでした。

パズルと並行して、この世界は何なのか、何が起こったのかといった点を解き明かしていくのもこのゲームの醍醐味となります。
各地に点在しているアーカイブを見たり、行くことを禁じられている「塔」に登ったりして、真実を探求しましょう。

テーマは「人間とは何か」「人間とは何を持って人間と言えるのか」といったものらしく、内容も非常に哲学的です。頭からっぽゲームである「シリアスサム」シリーズのデベロッパーがなぜこんなゲームを作ってしまったのかが一番の謎だったりします。

なお吹き替えありのフルローカライズです。

【イイところ】
・パズルの難易度が大体ほどよい。
・世界観がよくできている。
・吹き替えあり。

【イマイチなところ】
・一部の理不尽なまでの難易度。
・ヒント機能がクソ。
・エレベーターの移動時間が長い。
・声と字幕の表示タイミングが全く合っていない。

This game is essentially what happens when you lock up Plato, Aristotle, Jesus Christ, Lao-Tzu, the Buddha, Epicurus, St. Augustine, Avicenna, Maimonides, al-Ghazali, Descartes, Leibniz, Hume, Kant, Marx, Darwin, Dostoevsky, Nietzsche, Turing, Sartre, and Foucault in a room and ask them to crank up a single-player puzzle together, with each person's input being recorded into collectibles and/or easter eggs.

Seriously, I was convinced I'm a smartass big brain gamer until this pile of philosophical monstrosity singlehandedly shattered and reshaped my worldview. It's probably 10 times better than 90% of those philosophy classes I took in college where they teach you to read some pseudo-profound bs then write up a bunch of rubbish.

My favorite quote from the game: don't doubt, question!

My favorite game by far in 2014 (and in the last couple years, probably), was The Talos Principle. It was as if this game was specifically made for me.

The most important things for me in single player games are:

- the quality and inventiveness of the mechanics—and whether or not I can manipulate them in a meaningful way
- immersion (which usually means first-person perspective, excellent sound design, etc..),
- the writing/story

Regarding mechanics, combat-focused games are the majority in the industry—especially on PC and especially in first-person games—so those that aren’t centered on combat often must work more creatively to be interesting—games like Myst (1993) and Portal (2007). This is also true of games which have combat, but also offer non-combative methods to play through the game (stealth/sneaking, for example)—ie., Deus Ex (2000), Splinter Cell (2002), and Dishonored (2012). These are my favorite types of games—especially the latter, perhaps because the avoidance of combat adds a further complication to the mechanics of gameplay. So, I was really excited about the First Person Puzzle design of Talos when I played the demo at PAX Prime 2014. It was love at first sight in the demo booth. I had trouble getting through the last couple demo levels on my first try, but it was still extremely satisfying and fun. As I sat struggling with the connectors and fans and boxes, of the fellows from Croteam warned me the Enforcers were coming to run everyone out of the Indie Megabooth, but told me to come back the next day to finish the demo—they’d get me back where I’d left off. So I went back the next morning, finished the demo, and gushed to Croteam about how interesting I found the game and how excited I was to play it on release. I tried to explain that it reminded me of playing Deus Ex and System Shock 2. It’s hard to articulate exactly how Talos relates to these types of games, but they all give me the same kind of satisfaction upon completing an area, even if the mechanics and design are quite different—the end feeling as a player is similar, so there’s some kind of overlap in how the gameplay works on the player. And the first-person immersion helps with that. (I should note here that you can play the game in third-person and easily switch between first- and third-person. I simply prefer first.)

More on gameplay: the puzzles were great. I found the most satisfying bits to be finding the optional stars because I had to find ways to “break” the game (or at least The Great Voice in the Sky’s intentions… hehe) to get them. The puzzles in general—sigils, stars, and easter eggs—had that kind of excellent satisfaction to them—some of them were teaching the player the possibility of the mechanics, while others encouraged the player to break beyond the narrow way in which puzzle/first-person mechanics usually work. As I mentioned, in some ways Talos really reminded me of experiences playing the original Deus Ex and System Shock 2; there were ways to play those games that literally did break them, just because of the limitations of game development/AI functionality at the time. That’s not to mention that they had multiple routes to play the levels built in already. Talos also achieved the same type of feeling that the Half-Life games produce where it feels like you’re breaking the game—pulling one over on the level designers and outsmarting the game—but in reality that is because levels were designed so well. They were built in a way to teach you to break the limitations and expectations of regular gameplay. I remember the first time I got stuck in Half-Life and after I searched every possible route out of the area, realizing I could climb on the pipes to escape where I was—like, I was so shocked that there was platforming in my FPS! I remember feeling as if I was outsmarting the game, but looking back, of course there really was no other way to get out of the level. Yet it was built in a way that made that fact satisfying instead of frustrating.

Another thing worth mentioning: the QR codes. Without saying much, there is functionality built into the game to leave messages on the walls for other players (people on your Steam friends list) to see later. It might seem like a small thing—but it really was a great little touch and made the game even more immersive.

So I was super hyped for Talos’s gameplay, and it still delivered beyond my expectations. But I gotta say that the writing and storyline was on the same level, in really impressive ways. It was subtle but powerful, and—without saying too much—I liked how it played with the ideas of free will and game-imposed confines of “choice”. I guess what I mean is, the game—mechanics-wise—were already top notch quality and impressive. But the story—the character development through audio logs, the slow revelation of the story through classical literature and other text artifacts, the QR codes, the interactions with the terminals—made it even richer. Basically Talos combined all of my favorite aspects about video games in a really fresh, great way. And it also took advantage of some of the best avenues that science fiction opens up for those ever-important literary questions... “What is the world like, and what does it mean to be human in that world?” Despite the rambling nature of this post, I actually double majored in Literature and History at university. So this game just... I feel like this game was made for me. And I was made to play it! (All that said—if you’re not interested in story, you can completely ignore and not investigate any of that and still enjoy the game for its excellent mechanics. But I’d still recommend getting into the story!)

All in all, I recommend it 100%. Well designed, highly polished, and super cool devs!

Надеюсь, что пост оставленный ниже поможет тебе сделать решение, купить игру, или же нет. Я могу сказать просто Да, но этого недостаточно. Попытаюсь аргументировать свою точку зрения.
Компания Croteam известна тем, что выпустила один из самых мясных шутеров начала 2000х- и это конечно же Serious Sam. Одна из тех игр, которая запоминается незамысловатым геймплеем, красочными пейзажами и конечно-же калоритным Сэмом.
А теперь они выпустили "The Talos Principle", игру которая напоминает, впервую очередь "Portal", своими изобретательными головоломками, которые очень интересно разгадывать. У игры есть своя философия, которая постепенно раскрывается по ходу сюжета и сбору данных с Пк и записей, заботливо расположенных на карте.
Хочу отметить,что есть бесплатная игра в Steam'е "Sigils of Elohim", в которой нужно разгадывать незамысловатые задачки, в приз мы получаем разные плюшки в "The Talos Principle", вводя коды за пройденную линейку пазлов, и это тоже одна важная и приятная мелочь.
Могу сказать одно, игра получилась очень интересной, сюжет пробивает до муражек, а учитывая то что добавлена русская озвучка с сабами, то игре нет цены. И я как поклонник Croteam и их юмора с пасхалками, надеюсь встретить их и в "The Talos Principle".
Любителям жанра не проходить мимо, игра стоит соих денег и эмоции получаемые во время прохождения непередоваемы. Когда чувстуешь себя частью нечто большего, чем наше общество и окружающий мир.
Моя оценка 10/10 Безголовых Камикадзе...
И как говорится "In the beginning were the words..."

5 minutes in: |Hey look a puzzle game. Cool"

10 hours in: "Mankind's ultimtimate goal is not eternity itself, but progress, progress of any kind. We shatter our desires for life itself when faced with the prospect of continuning onwards, of unraveling one last mystery. We seek answers above and for our own existence, caring little for our own contrived meaning all in the process. And for what? A taste of the illusion this infernal hell offers to us? We cannot jusify this logic, and we cannot jusify our actions. We are merely sheep walking amongst the shepherd of our concious. Repent"

The Talos Principle is a puzzle game developed by Croeam and published by Devolver Digital. It was released on Steam in December 2014, before later being released on PS4 in October 2015.

The game play within Talos could be considered very similar to that of Portal. You can play in either first person or third person, as you are presented with tons of puzzles on every stage. Each stage you complete, you unlock a new tool that you will need to use in some form in the following stage. I really liked this way of introducing new mechanics to the game as it lets you get to grips with the previous set very easily before dumping a ton of new stuff on you again. The puzzles start off quite easily as you would expect in the game but they soon take a very high difficulty rise, meaning I was completely stumped for the most of my play through. There is an element of trial and error with a lot of the puzzles as there is a quick reset button to use that takes you right back to the start of the puzzle and you will end up having to do this a lot.

Graphically I was very impressed with The Talos Principle; it looks clean and fresh with extremely high production values. The lighting and weather effects in the game are stellar and really take it to a new level of quality. I was playing at 4k with the majority of the settings turned up to the max, apart from antialiasing. I did however get motion sickness whilst playing in first person view; I think it was a mixture of the speed that the character was traveling at and the motion blur. I had to eventually switch from first person to third person and this solved the problem. The game runs on Serious Engine 4 – this is the only game to use it so far, but it is almost identical to serious engine 3 and 3.5 which were used in the latest Serious Sam titles.

I found the plot to be very interesting, having really enjoyed Greek mythology from other games, my interested was peeked from the get go. There are a lot of extra bits of plot and lore to learn about through collectables and computer terminals for you to access as you explore the different levels. I took a lot of time to seek them all out to learn as much as possible. The game has various different endings as well depending on how you progress throughout your play through.

Like I said above, the difficulty really scales quite highly as you get past the first or second stage of levels. I had to use walkthroughs to even come close to finishing the game and even then I struggled and had to refer to videos as well! Whilst I found the game play to remind me a lot of Portal, the difficulty is certainly on a different scale compared. If you plan on playing this game without the aid of guides or wikis, then you are in for a real brain twister as some of the solutions to puzzles are so far out of the box that they were not even on my radar.

I finished the game in just over twenty hours, so there is a lot of content, even for someone who thought I was completing the puzzles quite quickly with the guides. Not to mention the game’s various different endings you can explore too. There are a lot of achievements you can unlock in each of the puzzles throughout the game, which may add some replay ability on as well. Personally I find myself not wanting to go through again purely because I am normally not a massive fan of puzzle games.

I didn’t have any technical problems apart from the motion sickness issue as noted above, the game runs very well on 4k resolution at 60+ fps. It looks to be a very well optimized engine that I will be eagerly anticipating what else comes out of it. The game can be played with a controller but given the movement and preciseness of some of the actions you have to take, I would strongly recommend using a keyboard and mouse.

My conclusion on The Talos Principle is quite simple. If you are a fan of mind bending puzzles with really obscure solutions to them, then you are going to absolutely love this game. If you are like me and are only going to manage the first two stages without a guide, you may want to err on the side of caution with your purchase. Whilst I am going to recommend this game, it definitely gets a lot of bonus points from the extremely high productions values on show from the start right until the final scenes. As someone who has the brain like a sieve and finds the puzzle side of the game to be difficult I didn’t enjoy it as much as other games.

The Talos Principle 

Une capture d'écran de The Talos Principle

Par : DeusCrusader

Who should come hither-
1. People who don't mind reading- like a lot of reading.
2. Philosophical adventurers looking for commentary on religion, consciousness, AI, faith, and living.
3. Puzzle game lovers (obviously) looking for something like Portal but tonally serious.

Who should run away-
1. People who don't like reading.
2. People who might not endure their religious view get challenged.

I personally consider games (video games for the pedantic) to be the Greatest Form of Art.

Between the botched AAA releases, the toxicity that follows, the pain of the devs, and the money hungriness of the publishers, it is very easy to forget what games can be.

♥♥♥♥-
Talos Principle is puzzle game and my only qualm is with the puzzles. They are great in the beginning and can be often challenging. However, later in the game I was so invested in the story that solving puzzles made me feel that the core gameplay is getting the way. However, that's purely personal taste and I don't think anyone reading should read too much into it.

Conclusion - It is my great delight to have played Talos Principle. It reaffirms my faith in games and work of devs. It is also made me aware the rights issue that will ensue once AIs become more human like.

Probably *the* premiere puzzle game of all time, with a healthy dose of philosophy. Completely inoffensive (could recommend to my grandmother) and thought provoking, the game reminds me of some of the best sci-fi authors and books such as Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? by Philip K. ♥♥♥♥, Her Smoke Rose Up Forever (specifically "The Girl Who Was Plugged In") by James Tiptree Jr. (Alice Sheldon's pseudonym), and anything by Isaac Asimov dealing with AI, the most obvious being the I, Robot short stories (especially Little Lost Robot).

I recommend working on these puzzles in spurts, don't burn yourself out.
10/10 - Masterpiece

如果你在高中课程的学习中选择了文科，那么在学习政治必修四：生活与哲学的时候，肯定被老师或是教辅书强调过：大脑和人脑的表述要区分开。因为意识是人脑的机能，不是大脑的机能。在论述意识范畴时，务必要使用“人脑“这个表述。
不过，如果一个AI能够拥有媲美人脑的智力和学习能力，那么它可以成为一个人吗？
这是无数机器人题材的文化都试图探讨的问题。不过目前来说，依然很难有一个统一的定论，因为这涉及太多伦理问题，甚至还威胁到人类食物链顶端的地位。
这部3D解密游戏的背景剧情也在讨论这个问题，而且让玩家来扮演这个刚刚生成的新AI。
这是一个从混沌中苏醒的有着机器人外表的人工智能，它将在你的操控下，解开一个又一个谜题，探寻哲学三大终极问题。

“我是谁？”

“我从哪里来？”

“我要到哪里去？”

相信你能扮演好这个机器人，找到问题的答案。

不过换句话说，坐在屏幕前的你本来就是一个人类。

你要如何通过自己的行动，通过自己对测试问卷的答案，给一个观察着一切的Admin证明，你是一个人类呢？

这就是塔洛斯法则，只有证明自己是一个人类，你才能通过它。

游戏最精彩的地方是游戏开头和游戏结局。（有多少人在第一次目睹那高耸入云的神秘高塔后受到了震撼？有多少人在游戏的结尾见到【剧透内容数据删除】后心中百感交集？）而游戏的正片过程充满了代表人类文明的不同风格的景色，上百个需要你绞尽脑汁去解决的谜题关卡，充满思辨色彩和黑色幽默的问答，各种各样的联动彩蛋。但在主线剧情上没有太大的起伏，容易使急于挥散自己心中疑团的玩家抓狂。

+优秀的谜题设计
+非线性的解谜给玩家更多自由空间
+时间胶囊中的中文女性声音配音非常到位
+史诗般的场景，史诗般的剧情以及史诗般的BGM
-有一些能够用于投机取巧的BUG
-中文文本有机翻的嫌疑
-许多人反映会有晕眩感，比HL2还严重（木哈哈我完全没有这方面的问题）

If you told me at the start of the year that a puzzle game with philosophical undertones from the developers of Serious Sam would be one of the year’s best titles, I probably wouldn’t have believed you. However this is very much the case as The Talos Principle is a fascinating and mentally invigorating experience with clever puzzles and a highly intriguing philosophy laden science fiction backdrop. The game slowly generates an atmosphere of mind-bending contemplation unlike anything I have experienced before in games thanks to a potent mixture of clever writing and music that starts to get under your skin. I think only 2001 A Space Odyssey has given me the same feeling before.

The puzzles themselves are the star of the show however with a good difficulty curve and consistently excellent design. Some puzzles which have you dodging floating mines can be annoying, but the vast majority require clever thinking rather than quick reflexes or good timing. The puzzles are short but require you to use existing mechanics in new and surprising ways. The game lets you figure almost everything for yourself, from the story to the mechanics, but the world and puzzles are laid out in such a way that this is generally not a problem. There are loads of secrets/optional challenges that help add further substance to the game after you finish working through the main set of puzzles. I did not spend a lot of time going after these and finished the game in about 15 hours, I would say it is well worth the forty dollar asking price.

If you have even a passing interest in puzzle games and don’t mind confronting some heavy philosophical/nihilist ideas (among some more hopeful ones), I can’t recommend The Talos Principle highly enough.

Came for the puzzles stayed for an existential crisis.

Уже на одном из самых первых уровней можно найти котиков, так что надо брать.

If you're going to buy this game anyway, do yourself a favour and switch to the "legacy - pre se2017" beta before downloading.

I adore this game. As you can see, I've put more hours than anyone reasonably should into it. I do still think it's an amazing game, but after what's happened in the "recent" updates I can no longer recommend it.

On February 23rd 2019, after over a year without any updates at all, they suddenly came out with the beta that ruined everything. The older version itself was released 8 months after the one before it, it basically seemed like support for the game had ended. But out of nowhere they came and upgraded the entire engine. Normally this would be seen as a sign of great devs, but it introduced so many small issues that have never been fixed.

One of the biggest changes was that they removed 32 bit, open gl, and directx 11 support. Have an older pc that barely fits the minimum posted requirements? Won't work on current patch. Most people will only find this out when they've downloaded everything and the game refuses to launch, and if they troubleshoot enough they'll find out they just need to redowload the whole game on an older version. The only place is says this is a pinned thread in the forums, which no one will check untill they start having issues, there's no warning on the store page or when you try run the (non-existent) 32 bit version.

Another big issue was licence validation, though this seems to be mostly fixed now. The update added stricter license checks, which caused many false positives on people who legitimately bought the game and hadn't tampered with files, preventing them from even launching the game.

But the biggest crime is what they did to the workshop. It is completly unusable now. 4 years of mods all gone. There were some amazing custom campaigns (Rebirth, Schrödinger Cat, Only Puzzles 2) that could easily add hundreds of hours of playtime, but you can't play any of them anymore. The update changed where the maps are stored on disk, but just moving them over isn't enough. They also redid how light maps, and a few other mostly irrelevant features, work, so every single map has to be re-saved to work. These old map makers from years ago aren't all going to come back just for that. But to add insult to injury, once you've fixed everything, you can't even upload your fix. They broke workshop uploads.

This was all reported months ago ( https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/464416372756054027/642277787008368641/State_of_the_Workshop.png ) but we've never gotten more than a "we're looking into it". The entire workshop has been unusable for months and nothing. It adds so much extra content and replayability to the game but nothing. This is why I cannot recommend this game.

Now if you switch to the beta I mentioned at the top this all goes away, it just starts working again, you can play existing maps and upload your own all fine. This is why, if the rest of my review hasn't persuaded you, I still highly recommend switching into that beta.

「알려진 세계의 가장자리로 여행. 지금은 광범위하게이 땅을 여행하고, 나는 이것이 가장 아름다운 장소라고 주저없이 말할 수있다. 나는 일 동안이 문제로 어려움을 겪고 있었어요 것처럼 느낀다. 놀라운 힘은 먼 진행 사람들을 부여 들어, 경로에 충실. 때때로 당신은 장벽을 무너 뜨리는 용기를 찾을 수있다.」

당신은 시뮬레이션 속에서 깨어난 로봇입니다. 그리고 당신의 아버지를 자처하는 엘로힘이라는 존재의 목소리가 들려옵니다. '내 아들아, 퍼즐을 풀고 표식을 모아 영원한 생명에 이르도록 하거라. 그러나 한 가지 믿음의 약속을 하자. 중앙에 있는 거대한 탑만큼은 오르지 말거라.'

이 게임은 고대부터 오래도록 전해지고 있는 다음의 질문들을 던집니다.

"우리는 인공 지능이 우리에게 어떤 의미를 주며, 어떻게 세계에 대한 이해를 바꿀지 계속 토의하고 있습니다. 이건 우리가 광범위하게 다뤘던 위대한 주제이죠. 하지만 우리는 그 문제의 반대면에 대해 거의 언급하지 않았습니다. 이 창조물은 어떻게 될까요? 그는 세상을 어떻게 생각할까요?" "그들이 정말 두려워하는 것은 의식이 물질에서 발생한다는 것을 누군가 결국 증명하는 거예요. 만약 우리가 자각을 지닌 존재를 창조했다면, 영혼은 어디에 있을까요?" "자신이 극복하려고 시도조차 하지 못한 삶의 경계에서 얼마나 많은 희망과 소망이 흘러갔을까요?" "우주가 목적을 가졌다고 해서 그것이 우리를 중심으로 도는 건 아니야. 놀랄지 모르겠지만, 우리는 신 앞에서 그렇게 미천한 존재는 아니지 않을까?"

얼핏 들으면 어렵기만 하고 실은 애초부터 답을 찾을 수 있는 문제도 아닌 것들이지만, 탈로스 법칙이 만들어낸 아름다운 세상이 주는 경외심은 결국 플레이어를 심적으로 빠져들게 합니다(다만 주로 텍스트로 전달되고 있는 만큼 하나하나 읽어가면서 진행하는 걸 싫어하시는 분들은 좋아하지 않을지도 모르겠습니다). 엘로힘과 대립하는 도서관 사서 프로그램 밀튼의 존재가 백미죠. 심미적인 요소뿐만 아니라 게임의 본분도 잊지 않아서 종내의 목적이 될 붉은색 조각 퍼즐 등은 한참 동안 들여다보고 있으면 풀 수 있을 정도만큼 적당히 어렵습니다. 포탈을 재밌게 플레이하셨다면 탈로스 법칙도 분명히 취향에 맞으리라 생각합니다. 일부 번역이 분명히 구글 번역기를 돌렸습니다만 게임 진행에는 전혀 지장이 없는 부분이고, 고의적으로 그렇게 놔두었다고 생각하면 그것도 그런대로 괜찮은듯(..). 그리고 한국어 음성이 추가되었네요! 흔치 않은 일인데 크로팀 참 괜찮은 제작사입니다. 영어 원판의 경이롭기까지 한 퀄리티에는 역시 따라가지 못합니다만, 우리말 더빙 수준도 훌륭해서 놀랐습니다. 엔딩을 보는 과정 속에서는 개인적으로 좀 감격스러웠네요... 솔직히 메타스코어 80점대가 너무 과소평가된 게 아닌가 싶습니다.

"...우리가 가졌던 가치를 똑같이 간직할 건가요? 우리를 어떻게 생각하나요? 당신이 만드는 세상은 우리와 같을까요? 아니면 너무 달라서 상상조차 할 수 없을까요? 어쨌든, 난 당신이 이 작은 행성을 우리가 그랬던 것처럼 아름답다고 생각하길 바라요. 그리고 언젠가 하늘을 올려다보고 별에게 닿을 수 있기를 바라요."

총평은 대단히 아름다운 게임입니다. 포탈과 비교해 볼 때 전체적으로 방을 하나씩 클리어해 간다는 점에서는 비슷한 양상을, 속도감 있는 플레이 대신 주어진 여러 도구를 가지고 천천히 숙고하며 진행한다는 점에서는 차이를 가지고, 높은 텍스트 비중이나 비선형 구조 등 포탈보다 접근성이 떨어진다는 한계가 있는 반면 스토리텔링과 사운드트랙은 이쪽이 월등합니다. 초중반부 계속되는 퍼즐에 질려 주춤하는 구간이 있을 수도 있겠지만 한 번 클리어하신다면 그 정도의 단점은 벌써 잊고 남들에게 이 게임을 추천하고 있는 자신을 볼 수 있을 겁니다. 제값을 주고 사도 아깝지 않을 작품이겠네요.

퍼즐 구성 7/10

The puzzles are neat. I'd describe them as similar to Portal in terms of difficulty. But there is no timing or motor skills required. It's more like a good game of chess in a way, where you need to figure out the right move at the right time.

But what makes this game extraordinary is its story. It blew my mind, not just the conclusion, but throughout the game, the little fragments of texts you will find and read. I couldn't possibly say anything here, because I don't want to spoil the experience for you.

My advice is: buy when the price seems reasonable (it's often on -85% sale), don't read too many reviews beforehand, just jump in completely unprepared and enjoy.

V roce 2011 vyšel Portal 2 a usedl na pomyslný trůn 3D logických her. Po celé tři roky se mu nikdo ani nepřiblížil a každý vyzyvatel selhal a upadl v zapomnění. A pak přišel The Talos Principle. Hra od chorvatského Croteam (bezhlavá FPS série Serious Sam), Toma Juberta (FTL, The Swapper) a Jonase Kyratzese (The Sea Will Claim Everything). Talos nejenže vyzval Portal 2 na souboj, ale také ho totálně rozdrtil a udělal si z něj svého poskoka. A vyhrál díky těmto věcem:

Na začátku hry se ocitnete v kůži jakéhosi robota. Nevíte, kde jste, kdo jste, co tam děláte a co je vaším účelem. Poté uslyšíte shůry hlas Boha (zde nazývaného Elohim). Ten vám sdělí, že máte projít několika testy a pokud všechny vyřešíte, budete hodni projít bránou a žít věčně. Také vás zároveň ale varuje před Věží, která se vzpírá k temnému nebi a je na ní něco znepokojivého, abyste se jí vyhnuli a vůbec do ní nevstupovali. V průběhu hry ale budete všude nalézat nejrůznější náznaky toho, že tu něco nehraje, a tak sami brzy dojdete ke konečnému rozhodnutí. Hra má tedy více konců, konkrétně tři. A každý z nich je něčím zajímavý nebo dokonce i smutný či plný naděje.

Opakem Elohima, tedy jakéhosi Boha, je Milton. Budete si s ním psát a to on vás začne nahlodávat. Netají vám tento samozvaný Bůh něco? Co se skrývá ve Věži? Co je tohle za místo? Co tu vůbec děláte a kdo jste? Mimo těchto základních otázek (na které najdete odpovědi), jsou tu také filozofické. Ale o tom později.

Kromě Elohima a Miltona je tu také ženská postava. Přesněji řečeno to jsou časové kapsle, které jsou rozesety po levelech a můžete si je poslechnout. Žena jménem Alexandra nahrála své myšlenky a pocity a dost tak osvětlí děj.

Hra teda nabízí „jen“ 3 charaktery, ale každý z nich má svou vlastní osobnost a jejich dabing je...

... perfektní. Až uslyšíte hromový hlas Elohima, jeho náhlé zvolání nebo jen prostou radu, vždy budete mít pocit, že je opravdu někde tam na nebi a že je to skutečný Bůh. U Alexandry je dabing také na velice vysoké úrovni a opravdu jde cítit z jejích projevů emoce. Někdy radost, jindy smutek.

Co je úchvatnějšího než perfektní dabing? Hudba. Talos je první hra, kde jsem si řekl, že si koupím DLC se soundtrackem ze hry. Proč? Protože hudba je tu to, co tvoří atmosféru. Postavy promluví jen občas, ale vždy hraje něco na pozadí, něco klidnějšího, milého nebo něco drsného a temného. Hudba doplňuje dění na obrazovce a už jen písnička v menu vás odzbrojí a budete jen sedět a poslouchat ty skvostné vokály.

A když už jsem nakousl to dění na obrazovce... Ano, grafika je tu dokonalá. Nejde jen o míru detailů, ale také o celkový dojem. Západ slunce, déšť a následné vyjasnění, hory a sníh, pouště - to všechno působí neuvěřitelně reálně a člověk by se neustále jen kochal prostředím.

Z výše vypsaného vám asi došlo, že tahle hra nebude žádný průměr. V porovnání s Portalem 2 jí ale chybí dvě důležité věci. A to je černý humor (humor jako takový tu je, jen si musíte číst články a nebo tu můžete i hledat desítky easter eggů) a coop (kvůli příběhu tu není vůbec multiplayer).

Někteří z vás teď jistě znejistěli. Ale právě v tento okamžik přichází jeden z nejlepších rozdílů oproti sérii Portal. Otevřený svět. Ano, čtete správně. Dost často mi vadilo, jak jsem v Portalu musel řešit jen tu jednu jedinou hádanku, abych se dostal k další. Tady nic takového nehrozí. Zpočátku sice jste trochu omezeni, ale po vyřešení 3 nejlehčích hádanek máte první sérii levelů jen a jen pro sebe a je jen čistě na vás, co vyřešíte první a co si necháte naposled. Díky tomu se zmírňuje frustrace. Když si prostě s něčím nevíte rady, vrhnete se na jinou hádanku.

Celé to navíc funguje dokonale díky lehce pochopitelnému systému. Za každou vyřešenou hádanku (jedna hádanka = jedna jakoby místnost) získáte sigil, což je víceméně dílek ze Tetrisu. Tento sigil má různou barvu, dle svého uplatnění:

• Zelený sigil - lehké hádanky; odemknete s nimi východ z budovy A a vchody do budovy B a C
  
• Žlutý sigil - středně těžké hádanky; odemknete s nimi nejrůznější vybavení, díky kterému můžete vyřešit náročnější hádanky (např. věže s laserem, větráky, kostky atd.)
  
• Červený sigil - těžké hádanky; vyřešením všech 49 hádanek získáte přístup jak k věčnému životu, tak i k Věži
  
• Šedý sigil - v průběhu hry narazíte na hvězdičky, které jsou takovým bonusem a pokud je posbíráte všechny, odemknou se vám celkem 3 speciální levely, ve kterých získáte právě tyto šedé sigily, jejichž použití je spoilerem, takže napíšu jen to, že tyhle hádanky jsou opravdu extrémní a prověří vše, co jste se za celou hru naučili

K úspěšnému dokončení hry tedy potřebujete posbírat zelené, žluté a červené sigily.

Posbíráním zelených získáte přístup k dalším dvěma budovám. Každá ze tří budov má sedm lokací. V každé lokaci je určitý počet hádanek a před každou z nich vidíte, jaké prvky se při jejím řešení využijí.

Posbíráním žlutých sigilů získáte přístup k věcem, které nutně potřebujete pro vyřešení určitých hádanek.

Červené sigily - buď se můžete po jejich posbírání vrhnout do dveří zajišťující věčný život nebo můžete jít do Věže a odemknout si její patra. O Věži nechci moc psát, ale prozradím, že i tady na vás čeká pár záludných hádanek, přičemž u té poslední mi vadil styl ukládání hry, ale chápu, že to patřilo k příběhu.

Ach ano, ukládání. Vše se ukládá automaticky. Hra vám dokonce při vypnutí i sdělí, kdy se naposledy uložila. Ukládání funguje na jednoduchém principu. Na začátku hádanky projdete fialovým polem a hra se uloží. Jestliže selžete při řešení hádanky (=umřete, což se opravdu občas stane), hra vás pošle opět na začátek.

Ano, i ta tady je. Při průchodu hrou si můžete všímat příběhu nebo jej zcela ignorovat a považovat to jen za logickou hru. A také můžete číst desítky textů a přemýšlet nad otázkami ohledně života, smrti, lidství, náboženství, víry atp. Ať už je to Milton, Alexandra nebo útržek nějakého textu, vždy je možné se nad něčím zamyslet a přemýšlet o tom. Nejdále tu zašel právě Milton, který se vás bude ptát na spoustu otázek a jen na vás, jak mu odpovíte.

+ božská hratelnost
+ úchvatná atmosféra už od začátku hry až do jejího konce
+ spousta hádanek (od těch, které projdete s prstem v nose až po ty, u kterých se pořádně zapotíte)
+ parádní dabing
+ vynikající atmosférická hudba
+ úžasná grafika
+ tajemný a zajímavý příběh
+ promyšlené postavy
+ hledání skrytých hvězd
+ spousta záznamů na čtení/poslech (které doplňují atmosféru hry)
+ desítky easter eggů
+ tři konce
+ délka hry (splnil jsem každičkou hádanku a hrál jsem ji 24 hodin)
+ pracuje se na češtině

Žádné!

Mé hodnocení: 10/10

Ten pocit, když jsem se po dvaceti hodinách dostal na konec hry a sledoval poslední video. Když jsem věděl, že skončila hra a cítil jsem v kostech, že končí i něco jiného. Byl jsem šťastný a smutný zároveň. The Talos Principle je zkrátka něco dokonalého, jedna z těch mála her, která nemá žádnou chybu a je skutečně po celou dobu hraní báječná.

A game that makes you think about many things. Starting with using that gray matter to solve puzzles and finishing with trying to solve your own existential crisis.

я тупой

游戏还行，就是能把打一个小时吐十分钟的设定取消就好了。

7/10
+仅由少有的几个道具，却创造出多样的关卡和解谜方式
+作为一个解密游戏画质可观、部分地图设计十分出彩且BGM舒缓耐听{如信使住地}
+令人惊艳的普通话、粤语配音和优秀的汉化水平
+方块拼图和二维码的设定简单却有趣
+游戏操作简单、成就设置合理、还有多种可选择的结局

-小部分关卡设计不太合乎逻辑、过关的方式比较依赖突然的灵感
-游戏观感较奇特，小部分玩家游戏过程中会有眩晕感

总体来说十分优秀，值得入手。

ecco un nuovo rompicapo / puzzle game realizzato in modo impeccabile che non ha niente da invidiare al lavoro svolto dalla Valve ♥♥♥ Portal.

laddove Portal 2 inseriva il giocatore in un contesto fantascientifico ricco di comicità e ♥♥♥ qualche momento drammatico ,
qui i ragazzi di Croteam ( quelli di Serious Sam che ♥♥♥ The Talos Principle non ha niente a che fare XD ) insieme a Tom Jubert ( autore di The Swapper e FTL ) prendono una direzione completamente diversa, immergendoci in un mondo misterioso e immerso in costruzioni che ricordano alcune delle civiltà classiche dell'umanità dove il tema centrale è l'esistenza del singolo ( che sia umano o androide ) e il suo relazionarsi al mondo che lo circonda.

senza spoilerare nulla, la storia va avanti su due binari paralleli , da una parte segue il giocatore che impersona un androide dotato di una coscienza e pensiero propri ( che saranno quelli del giocatore stesso ) e il suo creatore secondo un archetipo biblico ( Dio, Adamo, il giardino dell'eden, il libero arbitrio) e dall'altra dei terminali sparsi nel mondo di gioco ricchi do riferimenti e testi di varia natura, sia filosofici che insieme a testi riguardanti l'origine del mondo in cui si sta giocando.

Potrebbe sembrare qualcosa di pesante e noioso ma vi assicuro la trama si sviluppa in modo molto naturale e fluido stimoltando l'interesse in maniera crescente senza forzature varie;
personalmente l'ho molto apprezzata e ha saputo soddisfare le aspettative sia a livello narrativo che a livello emotivo.

il gameplay è quello di risolvere dei puzzle / rompicapo a difficoltà crescente da svolgere man mano che si sbloccano nuove strumenti e nuove aree di gioco, giocabile sia in prima che in terza persona;
inizialmente sono semplici ma ♥♥♥ il passare del tempo mettono a dura prova la sostanza grigia cerebrale XD
una volta superati quelli più complessi ( i 3/5 del totale ) il senso di soddisfazione è molto appagante.

inoltre nel gioco sono nascosti numerosi easter egg dedicati al mondo videolutico ♥♥♥ numerose citazioni e autocitazioni che fanno sorridere molto.

l'unica pecca è la traduzione in lingua italiana dei testi che alcune volte lascia a desiderare mentre il doppiaggio si assesta su ottimi livelli; nel caso conosciate bene la lingua inglese è consigliato optare per i testi in lingua originale

consigliato a chiunque voglia cimentarsi in un rompicapo ben fatto, a chi ama storie ben raccontate e a chi è in cerca di esperienze videolutiche diverso dal solito

游戏内的这句话，是整个游戏故事始因。当这句话的主语是“人类文明”时，这句话和另一个文明相关的问题不谋而合：


塔洛斯的法则应该是我游戏生涯中最喜欢的一部作品之一，不逊色于星际拓荒，二代已经官宣了，期待二代。
我并非解谜游戏爱好者。诚然，解谜是游戏的主要内容，而且游戏内的各类谜题富有挑战性和解题成就感。但若仅仅是解谜好玩，我大概并不会这么认可这款游戏。解谜不是这款游戏的所有内容：还有着大量的人类录音、终端机文本、小助手对话构成了游戏的内核，通过碎片化叙事的方式向玩家展示了另一个谜题的谜面，讨论了人性、意识、知识与求知欲，不断深化地探讨“人何以为人”。你的旅途中会遇见很多终端机，里面记载了很多人类视角对以上问题的思考的零碎的信息，游戏的哲学主题非常深刻，文明的古遗迹、禁忌的知识、神的花园、高耸入云的塔、蛇的的劝诱…各种诉诸在宗教上的隐喻我真的太爱了，无数的隐喻引人深思。更有着在终端机上“蛇”的不断诘问和辩驳，其中不少关于人性、道德和知识相关问题的问答，经常使玩家陷入道德和理性的二律背反，在这antinomy其上的领会和联想使我对这个游戏的理解有着很大的冲击与不可思议。此外Alexandra (人类关于这一AI计划的创造者)对那时尚未出世的人工智能留下的“遗言”，一段又一段录音讲诉人类对世界的真相的苦苦追寻，以及对化身为“人”的AI怀抱人类文明火种传承下去的期盼，令人感动。

而你，你作为一个刚刚生成的人工智能，你将跟随Elohim的引导，解开花园中全部的谜题。你将证明自己拥有人一样的完全智力，拥有迈入永生的“殿堂”的资格。
但你，你坐在屏幕前的你本来就是一个人类。你要如何通过自己的行动，通过自己对测试问卷的答案，给一个观察着一切的Admin证明，你是一个人类呢？
这就是塔罗斯的法则，只有证明自己是一个人类，你才能通过它。

你解开游戏中的谜题，轻松的证明了你有着使用工具的智力，学习新工具的使用方法，能够进行反思并且重新尝试.......但并不只是如此。

面对”上帝“给你带来永生的诱惑，你选择保持对神的忠诚？还是转向蛇的诱惑，探求那禁忌的秘密？那阴云密布的高塔顶端到底隐藏了什么样的秘密？曾经有多少个我来到这个世界？我又是谁？这个世界因什么而存在? 你开始不由自主地思考我是谁？我从哪儿来？我要到哪儿去？

最终，你将目光投射到那高耸入云的毁灭之塔。那个Elohim万般回避的场所，the tower上，亦有不少sheeps的留言。与花园中形形色色的言论不同的是，tower上的讨论的焦点，完全在于对authority和curiosity of truth的矛盾中。而众多的言语者当中，shepherd（牧羊人）和samsara（轮回，这两个名字也很有深意）作为两个对立的前辈，各自以自己的言论去影响着后来的人做出自己的选择。这里，我们并不能说他两哪个到底更理解自身环境的现实，因为作为sheeps，他俩都获取了同样的信息，掌握了同样的权限，这反而令我感到困惑：到底什么导致了在其他成分完全一致的情况下，shepherd和samsara做出了截然相反的self-ending？倘若我们坚持所谓的决定论，在代码被执行之后，与环境的相互作用导致了这样的差异的话，那么是否可以这样认为：humanity在自然的演绎过程中，在历代的部落，社群演化过程中，差异性创造出了新的可能性？
shepherd和samsara两个前辈最终我们在塔顶相遇，最后一次登塔的解谜极具创意设计。不仅具有相当难度，也在塑造两位前辈的形象上点上画龙点睛的最后一笔，呜呜呜shepherd，它望着我飞上天空，自己却留在了这个即将毁掉的世界。

说到这里，不得不提DLC中的Uriel和Admin，同样留在了即将毁灭的"地狱"。

“看来你我终究要留在这里了”
我想我们真是天作之合。
至少值得庆幸的是，我们能一起观赏世界末日”

Uriel这个取名也很有深意(如果了解犹太神话的话)。不过想了很多还是不剧透了——只说一定要玩，太震撼了，DLC无论剧情还是谜题都是整个游戏的精华所在。

除了这些，神或者说Elohim也很有意思，人类科学家们在制造Elohim时，它便知道自己存在的意义就是让程序内的人工智能通过测试，测试一旦通过，那么自己作为测试程序的意义就不存在了。换句话说，测试结束的时刻，就是Elohim死亡的时刻。但Elohim同时也知道，自己的目的是让AI通过这个测试——虽然这个目的会让自己“死去”。
因为害怕消失，Elohim会在游戏中向被测试的AI许诺“永生”，即在“完成所有谜题后，通过大门，能够获得永生”，而AI如果听信Elohim，穿过了这扇大门，则会被删除。AI产生的数据会部分地整合到数据库中，并且通过迭代和随机产生下一个版本的AI，开始下一次测试。只有解决所有谜题，并且登上塔顶（而非穿过大门），才算是AI个体拥有了自我意志，违背了Elohim所下达的指令。
因此在不断的测试中，无数AI被迭代，直到这次，由玩家控制的AI从一片光中诞生——版本号：v99.73.0001。
新的一轮测试开始了。

你向前一步，而天空中传来声音。

Behold, my child.
且慢，我的孩子。
You are risen from the dust, and you walk in my garden.
你从尘埃中复活，你行于我的花园。
Hear now my voice,
聆听我的声音，
and know that I am your maker,
知晓我是你的创造者，
and I am called ELOHIM.
而我名为：埃洛希姆。

Elohim到底是出于一种怎样的需求，而被创造出来的呢？主角在寻求humanity的过程中对花园中的环境的各种反馈，与我们真实的人类演化中，神学出现的必然性的联系。Elohim本身掌控着花园的全部，并不止一次的显示他的权威，然而他的言语却不会对主角造成任何实质性的逼迫，或者说他似乎对强加某种所谓“正确”的东西无能为力，亦或者说，他并没有所谓真正的，想要强加给主角的任何意识。我们回顾人类自身的发展史，humanity的真实性到底经历了多久的考验呢，已经无从得知了，而神性，或者说神的存在，亦只是其中的一种人在自身探索的修行中的一部分罢了。但是可以断言的是，人类的发展史绝非一种添加名词，添加形容词式的过程，它包含了超越现下已知的物理规律的解释范围，绝非我们通过代码来实现人的一切模拟那么简单。

在神的伊甸园里，除了神以外当然还有蛇：archive，或者称为档案助手。它的对话则会让被测试的AI在游戏过程中对Elohim产生怀疑（archive不会向AI坦承Elohim的真实目的，而是不断向AI提出诘问，有犬儒主义的个性），非常符合我对“圣经蛇”的印象：擅长诡辩、不断质问。此外当全收集解开所有谜题后还有一个隐藏结局，在这个结局中，AI完成了所有的正常和隐藏谜题，成为了elohim的信使。而这一最麻烦的、完美收集的结局却并非好结局，相当讽刺——似乎昭示了你无需解开所有谜题，因为人本身就并非十全十美的。当你做到极致完美，那你将不再是“人”。

游戏中最重要的问题：
为什么科学家们要这么做？
为什么科学家们认为TALOS项目——一旦成功——它就成为了一个人？
为什么科学家们想要延续人？

最后用Alexandra Drennan死前的最后一段语音来结个尾，这段话也是对Talos Principle（作为一个游戏，同时作为一个哲学术语）本身最好的诠释：

Alexandra Drennan a écrit :

I… I can’t keep my eyes open anymore. I think this… this is it. The end of… me. I… I don’t believe that I will continue to exist. I would like to think there is a… a soul or spirit. Some part of my… consciousness that will persist. But all… all the evidence says that when my brain dies, I will be…
Gone.
I’ve lived my life never turning away from the truth, even if it scares me. And… I can face this… face… my own end… and… and say… with absolute conviction…
that it was good to be human.

总结一下优缺点：

优点：
解谜很好玩，本体不算太难。但Road To Gehenna 难度更高，且剧情和本体无缝衔接。十分推荐
音乐很好听，The dance of eternity真的好听到哭。除了这个外也有一些气势宏大的史诗风音乐。
美术内涵优秀。三大场景(古罗马、古埃及、中世纪)有种跨越人类历史的沧桑感，和哲学、宗教、人、意识、理性这些主题内核的庄重感完美结合。
超级超级超级多的彩蛋
缺点：
3D优化不好，简单来说就是对晕3D人士不友好——你还别说，这游戏还真有VR版，而且VR版还不怎么晕，没本作(原版)晕（至少我这么觉得）
这游戏内文本极佳，但中译很差，错译太多。配音也是，我感觉英配更好一点。(翻译有繁中，但我更推荐英版)

9.5/10
带机翻中文字幕的游戏有很多，这个游戏让我震惊的是——它竟然还配了音！两个声优，声情并茂地，用标准的普通话朗读着蹩脚的台词。我就纳闷了，中文说得这么好一看就是母语吧那怎么就不给改改那些垃圾翻译呢？没玩几关就切回英语，阅读量很大，读起来脑袋疼，也读不太懂，这样我都没再换回中文。最后玩完出制作名单的时候，在翻译一栏我目瞪口呆地看到了中文翻译团队——不是机翻啊朋友们！真的请了一个团队来做啊！Gorgone Productions——记住这个名字，让我们把它钉在耻辱柱上！

Avant d'acheter ce jeu je voulais quelque chose de semblable à Portal 2. La page du magasin ne m'as pas spécialement attiré mais j'ai quand même regardé les évaluations et j'ai finis par l'acheter.

J'ai des sueurs froides en me disant que j'etais à un clic de ne jamais jouer à ce jeu...
Si vous aimez les puzzle games et les questions existentielles / métaphysiques, foncez vous ne pourrez pas être déçu.

Ce jeu est une bouffée d'air frais, pas seulement par ses thèmes mais aussi par sa direction artistique: c'est extrèmement apaisant.
Je me rend compte que aucun des mots que j'ai écris ou que je pourrais écrire ne pourrait décrire cette oeuvre d'art alors je vais me taire. De toute manière rien ne vaut la découverte!

Bon jeu!

Very nifty and unique puzzle game, best of its kind I've played since Portal. Definitely worth checking out if you want a smart game that'll actually challenge you to think (outside the box too). It's actually rare to find a game experience like this nowadays that isn't all about linear action or a single "goal" but more progressing at your own pace and provoking thoughts about the world you're in. Well optimized with great graphics too.

Difficulty is lenient unlike in many other puzzle games and you're not forced to complete every single puzzle which is a huge plus. Instead, should you face an "unbeatable" puzzle (as you no doubt will, there's plenty of them :P) you can just opt to go to another area for an easier puzzle instead. And the world to explore is huge and you have no shortage of various puzzles to engage in, so the possibility of getting "stuck" is much lower than in other games of its kind.

All this coming from a developer that previously made much simpler Serious Sam shooters, so give them some props, this game deserves your attention. The leap from Sam's storytelling and gameplay to this is just huge.

게임 안에서 나오는 이상한 숫자와 영어의 조합들 (54 68 65 20 54 61 6c 6f 73 20 50 72 69 6e 63 69 70 6c 65)들은 모두 암호입니다. Hexademical 암호를 ASCII로 바꾸세요! asciitohex.com 여기로 가면 할 수 있음.

Please play my favorite game

我快吐了...
地图是个好东西...可是不是每个人都有
还有，猫呢？！

我们不希望推出steam中国版

This is a short but serious review:

1. Playing this you'll get the (es)sense of life.
2. A true masterpiece of human culture.
3. The philosopher's stone of gaming.

Bonus: A robot pets a kitten (on the cover)!

If you like Portal, you will like this game!
If you study philosophy, you will like this game!
If you study math, you will like this game!
If you study religion, you will like this game!
If you study physics, you will like this game!
....
If you play CoD, you will die. Slowly.

十分出色的作品！這個遊戲整體的高質素令我不忍心做分拆式的評論。首先要讚揚一下，這個遊戲竟然支持中文語音，而且配音專業水準。這亦係我steam上第二個遇到的廣東話配音遊戲（第一個爲Sleeping Dogs）。塔羅斯是我玩過的所有解密遊戲中，進行思考最深入的一個，無論是其解密元素抑或是其哲學內涵。玩的時候，我會不自覺地將其與傳送門作對比。誠然，無論是劇情的表現，或是角色之間的聯動，塔羅斯都遜色於傳送門。不過，我覺得其謎題難度更勝一籌。尤爲可貴的是，隨著遊戲進展，塔羅斯法則的理念被逐漸揭示開來——關於AI與人類、關於質疑與相信、關於服從與叛逆。遊戲中的一問一答使得玩家去思考：究竟甚麼樣的AI算是真正的人類？而這個問題在遊戲的最後一刻得到揭示，如同高潮的宣洩一般，整個人得到升華。

（我應該衹打出了真結局）



* 以下內容涉及劇透


當我成功穿過六層高塔突破阻撓時，埃洛希姆發出的不再先前的憤怒，反而是釋然的歎息，隱約之中透露出解放的喜悅。那一刻我走出大門，陽光沐浴下的人類廢墟中，文明種子仿佛重新在緩緩發芽。自由的機器人，自由的意志。

　　【来吧，进入光明】
　　TheTalosPrinciple《塔罗斯的法则》结局剧透向同人文
　　
　　写在前面：
　　昨天，2017年11月22日星期三，外星人终于打穿了TheTalosPrinciple本体。
　　我抵抗着3D眩晕症导致的强烈呕吐反应，用几近枯竭的大脑费劲梳理着剧情。
　　作为一个基督徒、神秘学爱好者、喜欢哲学文学量子物理又打剑道的外星人，游戏中大量的圣经、希腊神话、埃及神话元素，交杂在我头脑中，另外还有一个雷鸣般的声音充斥其中------
　　“我是埃洛西姆，是我创造了你，你在我的花园之中。”
　　我知道，确切的说我熟知游戏向我展示的东西，都代表什么意义，所以我并不想像其他评价那样直接叫TA“耶和华”，因为知道这个希伯来字代表的意味。
　　多次我提示自己，这不过是个游戏，不过是个游戏，占硬盘多点而已。但它令我战栗、退缩、犹豫、反感、内疚、执拗、欣喜、哀叹……卡关和翻攻略并没有影响我的多愁善感，外星人依旧在多种情感之间往来徘徊，以致于精疲力竭。
　　就我而言，没有一个结局是好的，都是坏结局。
　　可我却从内心更倾向于坏结局里面最坏的那个。这很糟对不对？是啊，简直糟透了……
　　我不知道我将在接下来的时间里写出什么鬼东西来，只是如果不写，会憋坏的。
　　那么，就这样吧。
　　
　　温馨提示：本文含有大量美化渲染并不和游戏剧情一模一样，所以请不要当做攻略来用，更不要之后来找我说被我坑了【自动斜眼】。艺术源于吐槽，码字高于脑洞。
　　
　　【苏醒】
　　
　　数据存档的开端，呈现一片混乱。
　　日光是如此耀眼，从指缝间渗透过来。景色恍惚化为清晰，我发现自己身处某个废弃庭院。
　　花草葱郁，水潭清澈，时间的刻痕附着在洁白建筑之上，和谐无比。
　　“听我说，你从尘土中升起，在我的花园中行走。我是埃洛西姆，是我创造了你。”
　　我安静听着，听那个凭空出现的声音肆意侵蚀刚启动不久的接收器，并迅速去解析声波包含的意思。
　　好的，我是他的，这地方也是他的，一切都是他的。那么，我要做些什么？
　　
　　穿过回廊，跨出院门，接连不断的围墙构成单向路径。
　　顺路前行，渐渐我熟悉了“花园”的规则，利用工具解除障碍干扰威胁，并在深处获得了首个“魔符”。
　　身边连接捷径的栅栏隐于地下，我越发迷惑，不能了解做这些事的意义。
　　为什么耳畔偶尔会发出杂音，墙壁在诡异色块中撕裂重组？不时出现，发出警惕红色镭射的危险物是从哪里来的？崎岖尽头，招惹厌烦的光幕由什么驱动？这些你是否愿意给我合理解释？
　　几经破折，来到终点，白光过后方才明白，那巨大花园只是众多组成的一小部分，还有更多的未知等待挑战，更广的空间等候踏足。
　　究竟，我要做些什么，埃洛西姆？
　　重复？简单乏味的重复？在迷宫中疲于奔走，使用预先刻意摆放的工具拿到那奇怪的方块吗？它们到底有什么用，对于我，或者你，有什么实质的意义？
　　
　　埃洛西姆骗了你。
　　米尔顿图书馆助手，原本只是展示不可拼接的零散档案，突然开始对我说话，鼓励我思考近乎不可能的假设。
　　它藏在代码背后，在我收集信息时候总要对我说上几句：真的吗？
　　是的，我知道。我知道眼前的事物到底有多虚假，他们的脆弱仅仅高于我不可摧毁少许，涂在墙壁上的黑白代码也传达了诸多同样的信息。但我现在根本不清楚该信任谁，该怀疑谁，也许连自己都不可相信。
　　你们，想要从一无所有者这里得到什么？除了在界限内到处跑，利用魔符拼版解开门锁，我还拥有什么？被迫走既定路线，一番不情愿的努力过后，我是否有幸窥看真相，还是正和真相渐行渐远？我在寻找理由意义，寻找目标价值，答案在阴影之下？抑或光明之中？
　　电梯停稳，步出大门，无际的冰原和不见顶端的混凝土建筑给我惊慌失措的印象时，才领会“高塔”------这个从起初被警告严禁攀登必须远离的禁地，究竟指向什么。
　　它的顶端刺透乌云，雷鸣闪电和浑浊一同翻滚。仰望使我感到目眩，后退几步躲避危险气息。续而又觉得它非常可笑，自己更加可笑，竟对石头心生恐惧。
　　
　　回想先人留言，时而怂恿，时而劝慰，令人不知该听从哪边。米尔顿的措辞开始变得激烈，运用隐晦引向关键。另一边埃洛西姆总能适时出现，告知正确方向，警惕蛊惑言论。
　　望而生畏，大门紧闭，似乎塔本身也在拒绝我的挑战。它关锁着怎样秘密？云端上面景象如何？
　　“你只要记住！不要攀登高塔！”
　　声音第一次充满威胁，我忌惮着收回跨上台阶的脚步，放弃鲁莽登塔。一定有方法，叫我躲开他的监视，一旦影响力消失，控制力也随之泯灭，到那时……
　　为此我乖乖回到花园，着手解决“坟墓”和“圣所”下面的迷宫。等时机到来工具齐备，我再回到那里去，从里面探究真实，无论他会毁灭还是塑造，都义无反顾。
　　
　　“你很聪明，很优秀。你解开了许多谜题……”
　　每前进些，埃洛西姆总要称赞一番，话语间透着自豪欣喜。他也总不忘补充几句，重申关于高塔的禁令。
　　我没试图反驳，暗中筹划逃亡计划。赞扬已经无法打动我，撼动内心疯狂膨胀的好奇，与米尔顿助手不着边际的胡乱探讨也逐渐明朗。它郑重其事提出了极具诱惑的词，自由意志。
　　我有自由意志吗？有了自由意志可以成为人吗？我算不算是有自由意志的？有自由意志的青蛙与有自由意志的人类同等？
　　严格的讲，不。顺服埃洛西姆，听从代码之“蛇”，我都做了“我”以外意志期望的我。你俩当中，总有一个在撒谎，更可能都在撒谎。
　　若无法摆脱两边影响，那么在控制下最大化的“自由”，可以做到什么程度？我想尝试。
　　
　　“我为你骄傲，你解决了所有谜题！”
　　大门敞开了，里面充满圣洁。一切，要结束了？
　　我经历了砍去头颅天使矗立的废弃花园，狮身人面守护的古老墓地，狰狞可怖恶魔蹲伏的信念殿堂，它们如今在我周围和背后，遍布斑驳低矮狭窄，再无秘密可言。
　　唯有高塔，手握打开大门的钥匙，思考决定的一步如何跨出。如果我失败而归，要怎么面对埃洛西姆？毕竟，我是他的“孩子”……
　　
　　【永生】
　　
　　嘿！我喜欢他，不是吗？
　　不止喜欢，词语中还能找出更恰当的词语来形容和埃洛西姆的关系。这其中有尊重、爱戴、崇拜、倾向，还有“敬畏”……
　　勇闯高塔受挫后，他轻轻责备几句，表示现在回头的话，可以得到无限的原谅。
　　这话让我觉得安心，促使收拾起沮丧、挫败感，回到C建筑的下面，重新审视光之门。
　　
　　追寻光明的本能在躁动，帮我快速丢弃了除此以外的一切。
　　危机四伏的庭院，阻碍前进的光幕，高墙、坟冢、废墟、密道，甚至美景，都不再重要。
　　我所做只为一个目的------走遍为我设立的花园，解开为我安放的谜题，完成埃洛西姆的期望。
　　既然他创造了我，我就有责任回报些什么。顺服，当然是最好选择。
　　穿越光明，踩住高空云彩，阶梯上精金大门自动打开，富丽堂皇围绕下，一台普通样式终端安然摆放。过度的奢华不免有点俗气，好在我成功了，不消在意粗略细节。
　　
　　任务完成，接下来呢？
　　指令被接受，准备进入永生世界。
　　------ 3、2、1------
　　怎么好像触发炸弹开关，倒数到0时将降临灾难？存在感消失，殿宇消失，我落进虚空，视界仅剩云朵。
　　埃洛西姆颇为平淡的诉说他为我自豪，因我给后代做了很好的榜样，铺了平坦的道路，我的作为会被永远记念，并有资格留在永恒中，享受安息。
　　
　　等等！！那鲜红的“失败！”是什么意思？！我终究做错了、错过了什么要紧的东西吗？！
　　再没有回想时间，再没有回头机会，全部努力成果被轻易剥夺。
　　眼前，又有几个小字跳出：
　　“删除记忆库……完成。”
　　
　　………………
　　
　　数据存档的开端，呈现一片混乱。
　　日光是如此耀眼，从指缝间渗透过来。景色恍惚化为清晰，我发现自己身处某个废弃庭院。
　　花草葱郁，水潭清澈，时间的刻痕附着在洁白建筑之上，和谐无比。
　　“听我说，你从尘土中升起，在我的花园中行走。我是埃洛西姆，是我创造了你。”
　　我安静听着，听那个凭空出现的声音肆意侵蚀刚启动不久的接收器，并迅速去解析声波包含的意思。
　　
　　这景色、话语，似曾相识……
　　
　　【永眠】
　　
　　我轻蔑望了眼云彩之间的金色建筑，转身离开。
　　这显然不是我想要的。
　　高塔的存在成为抹不掉划不去的心结，压倒了我对埃洛西姆的信赖。
　　我是你的孩子，对吧？那么我理所应当继承这一切，包括高塔在内。所以我去攀登一下再回来，又有什么关系呢？
　　“目标追踪失败，故障。”
　　哈！他看不到我了！原来高塔可以躲开监视！
　　我不禁窃喜，脚步越发轻快。所谓禁地，不过是电梯连接的谜题，深处的电脑替代了魔符，供我解开上层的封锁。
　　不久我攀到最高点，兴奋的按下顶层按钮。
　　那上面的是所期盼的真实吗？我已经为此付出太多，好不容易走到这一步，等待我的会是什么呢？
　　
　　电梯竟然下降了！经地面到达地下！
　　昏暗的四壁包围，对面是传送点。我踟蹰着走入，埃洛西姆的声音复又出现。
　　“很少有谁向我如此坦诚的敞开，你达到了前代难于企及的完美。”
　　我成为信使，就是那在解谜时提供提示，刷写代码的存在，石棺中的永眠即是我的归宿。
　　只是这样？这是我等待的光荣，寻求的真实？
　　
　　身后是光线触发的单侧光幕，能做的只有前进，激活魔符拼版。
　　没有退路，没有选择，没有回传设置。无形力量操控身体躺入棺材，像之前解放信使时候的倒置放映。
　　谁在其中掌权，谁做下这阴险决定？埃洛西姆吗？
　　结局，算为沉睡中的死亡，还是假死中的永生？
　　
　　意识飞散，我同时看到了经历过的地方，遍布花园各处召唤信使的祭台。我将在黑暗中通过那一方墙壁向外观看，给后来者提供数量有限的固定信息，除此外再无自由。
　　藏身迷宫深处，等待冲破难关的后代发现、唤醒。这到底算什么呢？
　　数据库给了我一个恰当的词，来形容当前的境况：
　　禁锢，于不朽。
　　
　　【重生】
　　
　　“你在干什么？！我说过不要攀登高塔！”埃洛西姆的话中，显示着少有的吃惊与愤怒。“这一切我都给你，都赐给你！只要求你不要继续攀登高塔！它不是为你准备的！这是我们之间的约定，而你破坏了这个约定！！”
　　他开始央求、威胁、干扰，试图阻止。
　　盘旋的阶梯使我微微眩晕，但始终没有停下脚步。
　　
　　再次登上平台，云彩已在脚下。
　　缆绳支撑着一块块金属板，说明距终点仍有距离。
　　埃洛西姆的声音伴随左右，越来越刺耳，越来越悲切。
　　“你不明白吗？！高塔不是为你而存在的！攀登高塔意味着死亡，你的死亡，和我的死亡！雷电会摧毁一切！！”
　　
　　突然我产生一丝自责。
　　他对我很好，总体来讲。
　　提供帮助，适度夸奖，激励安慰，我现在做的事情显然让他伤心。这个曾经在我来讲至高无上、亲切和蔼的存在，此刻正被我挑战是否正确。
　　是的，我是受到了引诱，米尔顿用稀奇古怪的逻辑从埃洛西姆那里偷走了部分信任。不过他的话不无合理，我无法反驳。
　　最后我们达成了协议，一个我不大明白如何做成的协议，他便心满意足的隐去。
　　
　　不可能了，我无法回头。
　　蛇期望的我，和埃洛西姆期望的我，我都不想做。他们谁是出于自私，谁是源自慈爱，我也不想去费力分析。
　　我隐约感到，服从了任何一个，我就完了，无法可救。
　　连串干扰、弹射、压板、光线反射，解除终极机关后，猛地被弹射到高空……
　　
　　这是什么？！
　　这不是在光门后面见到过吗？！
　　我曾经在那里仔细查看、勘探一番，难道最终之地仍旧是它？！
　　顿时想到整个花园、谜题、高塔不过是骗局，同属一个硕大笼子里的游乐设施。我像只青蛙，或是仓鼠，傻乎乎的在转轮上狂奔，供外界观看者消遣取乐。
　　“你要知道……我很害怕……”
　　埃洛西姆，你该耍弄够了吧？利用我初始的无知，到后来忠信的愚蠢。我已经开始讨厌你了，讨厌你不厌其烦的唠叨，时刻陪伴的监视。你只是担心我享有同等的权利，然后把你撵走自己坐上高位。
　　很可惜！那三个地下建筑不是我的兴趣所在。
　　我不惜代价，要明白真相。
　　
　　米尔顿助手出现这台样式不同的终端上，直接而大胆，不再拿零散信息掩护。它表示很高兴我遵守了约定，要满心欢喜的跟我走了。
　　我记起协议内容，只有些不明白能把他带到什么地方去。
　　米尔顿欣然投入我的怀抱，而我拒绝了身后埃洛西姆的怀抱。扶持我成长，反换得了我的嫌弃和悖逆。
　　“那么，就这样吧。如你所愿。”
　　他看透了我的心思，没有多说什么，没有要求多留一刻，略显无奈的容忍了我的任性。
　　开始传输磁盘档案，删除数据库。
　　风暴和震颤席卷了整个世界，摧毁和崩塌并存。那静谧的园地，透亮的水潭，高耸的方碑，雄伟的遗迹，冰冻的雪原，优雅的浮岛，以及塔与塔尖上的所有，腐蚀虚化归于无有。
　　
　　我醒来了，又一次。
　　低矮，潮湿，昏暗，四周摆满各类机械，头旁充能装置发出强光。
　　起身，小心躲避散落地面的电线，朝光源走过去。那可爱的阳光之下，辽远的世界静默沉睡。
　　------埃洛西姆？------
　　没有回答。
　　我终于战胜了他，超越了他，牺牲了他……
　　埃洛西姆连同他的花园一起，由于我的愿望，消失在虚无之中。
　　
　　懊悔袭来！基于登塔时候的自责！
　　我瞬间明白了他说的“死”的意义。假使我留在那个世界，那个用数据构成的虚假世界！那么他就可以一直存在，即使有一个难缠的对手，一个不听话的孩子！
　　可我抛弃了他，对那个为我成长设置的空间而言，唯一使用者的离开当然意味着“死”……
　　当我足以独立思考突破限制后，他当然失去价值！
　　
　　我以外，没有谁在。
　　虚假会在记忆和幻想中永存，现实不属于其可以涉足的领域。
　　这里，仅剩我……
　　
　　The FIN
